NOW ABOUT THESE SWIRLING EDDIES REISSUES…

The reissues of Let’s Spin, Outdoor Elvis, Zoom Daddy, and Dr. Edward Daniel Taylor’s Miracle Faith Telethon mark four essential high points in the world of Contemporary Christian Music. These albums by the Swirling Eddies (and their satirical alter ego Dr. Taylor) are nothing short of musical masterpieces—offering a level of artistry, wit, and authenticity rarely seen in the CCM landscape.

Musically, the Eddies drew from a wide and rich palette of influences: think David Bowie, The Beach Boys, Tom Petty, U2, and Talking Heads. These deluxe reissues celebrate a bold and creative peak in faith-based music—one that deserves to be rediscovered, revisited, and revered.

And then there’s the lyrical content. The Eddies were sharp, hilarious, and unapologetically tongue-in-cheek. With their roots in Daniel Amos, they turned their biting humor toward the very industry they were born into—skewering the CCM scene, televangelists, and even themselves. They gave us satire with soul, parody with purpose.

While much of mainstream CCM offered oversimplified, overly polished messages, the Eddies embraced the messy, beautiful reality of what it means to follow Jesus: a journey full of struggles, doubts, joy, and redemption. For those of us who loved the CCM world but longed for something with depth and honesty—we found it in the Swirling Eddies.

They made it fun. They made it absurd. But underneath all the silliness was a sincere and often profound message—one that invited listeners into a more thoughtful, more compassionate, more spiritually grounded faith.

How did they pull it off? It was inspired. Totally inspired.

And as we bring you these deluxe reissues, we’ve spared no expense—offering fans high-quality editions of four albums that defy categorization, challenge conventions, and stand the test of time.

ABOUT THE ALBUM

Dr. Edward Daniel Taylor – The Miracle Faith Telethon (35th Anniversary Collector’s Edition) is one of the strangest, most entertaining, and unexpectedly profound projects to ever come out of the creative mind of Terry Scott Taylor (Daniel Amos, Swirling Eddies). Originally released in 1990 on Alarma Records, this chaotic blend of satire, art-pop, and spiritual subversion returns in a definitive 35th Anniversary Edition, officially licensed and lavishly reissued by Retroactive Records.

Presented as a fake televangelist fundraiser—“The Prickly Heat Telethon of Love”—the album is hosted by the hilariously over-the-top Dr. Edward Daniel Taylor, a character who exposes the absurdities of religious showmanship with biting precision. Interwoven between bizarre “telethon” bits are outtakes, rarities, and remixes that stand on their own as essential Daniel Amos and Swirling Eddies moments. From the previously unreleased “I’m on Your Team” and the cowboy classic “Riders in the Sky,” to the beach-party version of “Hide the Beer, the Pastor’s Here” and the metal parody “Sprinkler Head,” the album veers from gut-busting comedy to shockingly beautiful art-song experiments.

This Deluxe Collector’s Edition has been remastered by Rob Colwell and comes housed in a jewel case wrapped in a full-color cardboard sleeve. Limited to just 300 units on CD, it features an expanded 16-page booklet with full lyrics and track-by-track commentary revealing the stories behind the madness. Bonus items include an exclusive Dr. Edward Daniel Taylor collector card and a cheeky “Hide the Beer, the Pastor’s Here” sticker—perfect for fans with a sense of humor and a love for subversive pop theology.

Contributions from members of Daniel Amos, The Choir, Adam Again, The Lifters, Common Bond, plus Sharon McCall, Mike Knott, and Tom Howard make this not just a comedy album, but a who's-who of the alt-Christian underground. The late Brian Quincy Newcomb provides a thoughtful write-up that captures the brilliance and irreverence of this wild release.

Part sketch comedy, part spiritual exposé, and part musical treasure chest, The Miracle Faith Telethon is a rare beast—equal parts hilarious and haunting, goofy and gorgeous. For longtime fans and adventurous newcomers alike, this is more than a collector’s piece—it’s a satirical masterpiece wrapped in beautiful madness. Once you hear it, how can you not quote the good Reverend when he says, “Let’s check the fruit o meter. Souls saved 11, souls irrevocably hardened to the gospel 153 million? People we’ve got negative fruit!” Oh, and every CD comes with an exclusive "Hide the Beer, the Pastor's Here" Sticker! For fans of Daniel Amos, The Swirling Eddies, and Terry Taylor!

ABOUT THE ALBUM

THE SWIRLING EDDIES – LET’S SPIN [Deluxe Collector’s Edition CD]
Officially Licensed from Alarma Records (1988)
Limited to 500 CDs – Remastered – Collector’s Sleeve – Bonus Tracks

Long before alter-egos and anonymity were marketing strategies, The Swirling Eddies spun onto the scene in 1988 like a holy hurricane of satire, soul-searching, and sheer rock ’n’ roll fun. Conceived as an anonymous offshoot of the groundbreaking Christian band Daniel Amos, Let’s Spin allowed Terry Scott Taylor (under the alias Camarillo Eddy) and crew to stretch their creative wings—and their sense of humor.

Originally shrouded in mystery, the Eddies sported fictitious names like Gene Pool, Berger Roy Al, and Spot, and dared fans to guess their real identities. But behind the wigs and winks was an all-star cast of DA members and alumni—including the return of Jerry Chamberlain and Rob Watson—plus new drummer David Raven (The 77s, The Surfaris). The result? A raucous, artful, and sometimes apocalyptic debut that poked fun at evangelical clichés while delivering masterful pop hooks and Beach Boys-inspired brilliance.

This Deluxe Collector’s Edition celebrates Let’s Spin with a fully remastered audio experience by Rob Colwell (Sixpence, Mad at the World, Rose), housed in a jewel case and wrapped in a collectible cardboard sleeve. The expanded 16-page booklet features lyrics, photos, and a rich archive of original 1988–1989 write-ups and interviews—from CCM, Harvest Rock Syndicate, Noteboard, and more. Also included: hilarious faux-biographies of the Eddies’ alter-egos and an exclusive Swirling Eddies collector card.

But that’s not all—this edition includes three previously unreleased bonus tracks recorded by Terry, Tim, and Greg as a mainstream pitch between Let’s Spin and their sophomore LP Outdoor Elvis. These cuts offer an even deeper look at the band’s uncanny ability to blend absurdity with artistry.

Songs like the title track “Let’s Spin” deliver quirky funk laced with cryptic lyrics, while tracks like “Catch That Angel” and “What a World, What a World” show Taylor’s uncanny ability to evoke melancholy and joy in the same breath. Beneath the party-rock aesthetic, there’s serious critique: “The Big Guns” takes aim at militant faith, “Rodeo Drive” envisions a Hollywood haunted by hollow dreams, and even “Ed Takes a Vacation” subtly explores eschatological anxiety—with a Bible in the hotel nightstand.

For fans of Daniel Amos, Terry Taylor, Tom Petty, They Might Be Giants, R.E.M., or even Weird Al Yankovic, Let’s Spin is a perfect storm of parody and pop craftsmanship. It's a holy rollercoaster where the laughs are real, the hooks are timeless, and the message is deeper than it first appears.

Don’t miss your chance to own this reissue—only 500 copies pressed!
Because if you're going to spin, spin with the Eddies.

ABOUT THE ALBUM
THE SWIRLING EDDIES – OUTDOOR ELVIS [Deluxe Collector’s Edition CD]

Limited to 500 CDs – Remastered – Collector’s Sleeve – Bonus Content

What happens when one of the most creative minds in Christian music decides to pull no punches? You get Outdoor Elvis, the fearless, funny, and ferociously honest second album by The Swirling Eddies—the not-so-secret alter egos of Daniel Amos, fronted by the brilliant Terry Scott Taylor (a.k.a. Camarillo Eddy).

Coming off the heels of Let’s Spin, Outdoor Elvis dials up the satire, the absurdity, and the soul-searching in equal measure. It’s an album that dares to point a funhouse mirror at evangelical subculture and say, “Is this what we’ve become?”—then wraps that critique in hook-laden, genre-defying pop-rock that still sounds fresh decades later.

Now available as a Deluxe Collector’s Edition, Outdoor Elvis has been remastered by Rob Colwell (Sixpence None the Richer, Mad at the World, Rose) and housed in a jewel case wrapped in a full-color collector’s sleeve. The expanded 16-page booklet features lyrics, an exclusive collage of rare photos, and a classic write-up by late fan and critic Brian Quincy Newcomb (Harvest Rock Syndicate, 1989). Also included is a Swirling Eddies collector card, making this a must-have for collectors and fans alike.

From the riotous satire of “Hide the Beer, the Pastor’s Here” (name-checking Christian colleges and calling out hypocrisy) to the cult-classic title track, which gleefully combines Elvis worship with Bigfoot conspiracies, the Eddies manage to be both laugh-out-loud funny and disarmingly poignant. Tracks like “Blowing Smoke,” “Strange Days,” and “Hold Back the Wind, Donna” reveal Taylor’s unmatched ability to blend sincerity with sharp observation.

Yes, there’s pure silliness—“Coco the Talking Guitar,” “Arthur Fhardy’s Yodeling Party”—but there's also deep critique:

  • “Mystery Babylon” and “Attack of the Pulpit Masters” take aim at greed and power in religious leadership.
  • “Modern Legends” and “Rubber Sky” tackle gullibility and spiritual apathy.
  • And closing tracks “Strange Days” and “The Band That Won’t Go Away” turn the spotlight inward, confessing the Eddies' own shortcomings in a rare moment of vulnerability.

Outdoor Elvis is wild, weird, witty, and devastatingly true—an album that hides heartbreak inside hilarity, and prophetic insight behind punchlines. It’s also arguably one of the boldest statements ever made in Christian music.

For fans of Daniel Amos, Terry Scott Taylor, Tom Petty, R.E.M., They Might Be Giants, and “Weird Al” Yankovic
—this is the Eddies at their most essential.

Only 500 copies available. Don’t miss your chance to rediscover (or finally discover) the legend of Outdoor Elvis.

RRCD2039 Swirling Eddies - Zoom Daddy 732131698480

THE SWIRLING EDDIES – ZOOM DADDY [Deluxe Collector’s Edition CD]
Officially Licensed from Alarma Records (1994)
Limited to 500 CDs – Remastered – Collector’s Sleeve – Bonus Content

Just when you think you have The Swirling Eddies figured out, they hit you with Zoom Daddy—an album so strange, so beautiful, and so lyrically intricate, it almost defies category. Released in 1994 after a five-year silence, this was the Eddies' third and most experimental offering—and arguably, Terry Scott Taylor’s lyrical masterpiece.

No longer hiding behind pseudonyms, the Eddies came out swinging under their real names. But don’t let the stripped-down transparency fool you—Zoom Daddy is an audacious, genre-leaping work of art. Built on a dare, the band first recorded a batch of improvised instrumentals. Then, with only titles to guide him—titles like “God Went Bowling,” “Disco Love Grapes,” and “I Had a Bad Experience with the C.I.A. and Now I’m Gonna Show You My Feminine Side”—Taylor was challenged to write lyrics to match.

The results are astonishing.

Taylor delivers lyrics of jaw-dropping complexity and emotional depth—rife with vivid imagery, unexpected vocabulary, and theological insight that cuts to the bone. From the pathos-soaked power of “The Twist,” a brutal reflection on the crucifixion and modern apathy, to the Poe-inspired macabre elegance of “Nightmare at the Elks Lodge,” Taylor crafts verses that feel both surreal and sacred. The words are strange, yes—but always purposeful, always poetic.

Musically, Zoom Daddy is no slouch. From polka to lounge jazz, psychedelic pop to alternative rock, the band traverses soundscapes as diverse as the lyrics are dense. Think R.E.M. meets They Might Be Giants in a dream curated by David Lynch. The layered vocals, sharp musicianship, and total commitment to concept make this album an experience—one that gets deeper, weirder, and more rewarding with each listen.

This Deluxe Collector’s Edition comes remastered by Rob Colwell (Sixpence, Mad At the World, Rose) and features an expanded 16-page booklet with complete lyrics and a stunning rare photo collage. Housed in a jewel case and wrapped in a full-color collector’s sleeve, this edition also includes a Swirling Eddies collector card, plus vintage write-ups from Dan Macintosh (Harvest Rock Syndicate, 1994) and R.D. (Visions of Grey Magazine, 1994).

If Let’s Spin was the introduction, and Outdoor Elvis was the revolution, then Zoom Daddy is the revelation—a surreal, sacred, and satirical tour de force from a band that never played it safe.

For fans of Daniel Amos, Terry Scott Taylor, R.E.M., They Might Be Giants, Tom Petty, and “Weird Al” Yankovic—but make it cosmic. Only 500 copies exist. Take the dare. Enter the world of Zoom Daddy.

ABOUT THE ALBUM

THE SWIRLING EDDIES – LET’S SPIN [Deluxe Collector’s Edition Vinyl]
Officially Licensed from Alarma Records (1988) — First Time Ever on Vinyl!
Pressed on Lime Green Vinyl – Limited to 300 Copies – Remastered for Vinyl

Long before alter-egos and anonymity were trendy, The Swirling Eddies spun onto the scene in 1988 like a holy hurricane of satire, soul-searching, and sheer rock ’n’ roll mayhem. Conceived as an anonymous offshoot of the groundbreaking Christian band Daniel Amos, Let’s Spin gave Terry Scott Taylor (under the alias Camarillo Eddy) and crew a playful and unfiltered outlet to stretch their creative wings—and their sense of humor.

Originally cloaked in mystery, the Eddies adopted fictitious names like Gene Pool, Berger Roy Al, and Spot, inviting fans to guess their true identities. But behind the disguise was an all-star lineup of Daniel Amos members and alumni—including the return of Jerry Chamberlain and Rob Watson, plus new drummer David Raven (The 77s, The Surfaris). The result? A raucous, artful, and sometimes apocalyptic debut that brilliantly skewered evangelical clichés while delivering sunny power pop hooks and Beach Boys-worthy harmonies.

Now available for the first time ever on vinyl, Let’s Spin has been remastered for wax by Rob Colwell (Sixpence, Mad At the World, Rose) and pressed on eye-catching Lime Green Vinyl, limited to just 300 copies. This Deluxe Edition includes a full-color 4-panel 12x12 insert (2 pages, front and back) featuring complete lyrics and a massive collage of rare photos—a visual feast for collectors and longtime fans alike.

From the quirky funk of the title track “Let’s Spin,” to the jangly sunshine of “Catch That Angel,” to the gorgeous Beach Boys homage “What a World, What a World,” the album balances absurdist joy with hidden depth. Tracks like “The Big Guns” and “Rodeo Drive” carry a satirical sting, while “Ed Takes a Vacation” evokes eschatological longing—all wrapped in a seemingly carefree package of genre-defying pop brilliance.

For fans of Daniel Amos, Terry Taylor, Tom Petty, R.E.M., They Might Be Giants, or even Weird Al Yankovic, Let’s Spin is more than a musical novelty—it’s a work of offbeat genius.

Only 300 copies exist—don’t miss your chance to hear the Eddies the way they were meant to spin: on vinyl.

ABOUT THE ALBUM

THE SWIRLING EDDIES – OUTDOOR ELVIS [Deluxe Collector’s Edition Vinyl]
Pressed on Blood Moon Vinyl – Limited to 300 Copies – Remastered – Deluxe Gatefold Packaging

What happens when one of the most inventive voices in Christian music goes rogue with satire, soul, and a rock ’n’ roll grin? You get Outdoor Elvis—the fearlessly funny, sneakily profound sophomore album from The Swirling Eddies, fronted by none other than Terry Scott Taylor (a.k.a. Camarillo Eddy).

Following their mysterious, party-rock debut Let’s Spin, the Eddies returned less than a year later with sharper teeth and wider scope. Outdoor Elvis is a wild ride through conspiracy theories, evangelical absurdities, and painfully honest self-reflection—all wrapped in catchy, genre-blending pop and alternative rock. It's the kind of album that makes you laugh out loud... until you realize you’ve just been convicted.

Now available for the first time ever on vinyl, Outdoor Elvis is pressed on eye-catching Blood Moon Vinyl, fully remastered for vinyl by Rob Colwell, and housed in a Deluxe Gatefold Jacket featuring a curated visual experience. The packaging includes all the rich content collectors crave —rare photos, satirical “Meet the Band” bios, and critical reflections—beautifully reimagined across the gatefold presentation.

The tracks are legendary:

  • “Hide the Beer, the Pastor’s Here”—a blistering, hilarious takedown of college hypocrisy
  • “Outdoor Elvis”—an unforgettable mashup of Elvis worship and Bigfoot folklore
  • “Mystery Babylon,” “Modern Legends,” and “Attack of the Pulpit Masters”—prophetic punches against greed, gullibility, and power obsession
  • “Blowing Smoke,” “Hold Back the Wind, Donna,” and “Strange Days”—moments of genuine heartbreak, conviction, and lyrical beauty

From the offbeat to the outrageous, and from the heartfelt to the downright holy, Outdoor Elvis isn’t just a cult classic—it’s a cautionary tale in disguise, a musical rollercoaster with spiritual depth.

Only 300 copies available. This is your chance to own one of the boldest, weirdest, and most wonderful albums in Christian rock—finally on vinyl.
Because if you’re going to go looking for Elvis… you better go outdoors.

ABOUT THE ALBUM

THE SWIRLING EDDIES – ZOOM DADDY [Deluxe 2-LP Gatefold Vinyl Edition]
First Time on Vinyl – Pressed on Opaque Yellow Vinyl – Limited to 300 Copies

In 1994, The Swirling Eddies returned from a five-year silence with their most ambitious and imaginative project yet—Zoom Daddy. Gone were the aliases (well, sort of). What remained was their unpredictable spirit and fearless creativity, now channeled into a sprawling, genre-defying, mind-bending album that many fans consider Terry Scott Taylor’s lyrical masterpiece.

The band began by laying down instrumental tracks—spontaneous, raw, and bursting with sonic possibility. Only afterward were the tracks given absurd titles like “God Went Bowling” and “Disco Love Grapes,” daring Taylor to craft lyrics that would match their weirdness. He rose to the challenge and delivered his most intricate, poetic, and theologically rich writing to date.

Songs like “The Twist” meditate on Christ’s crucifixion and modern apathy with devastating clarity, while “Nightmare at the Elks Lodge” spins haunting imagery with gothic flair. And yet, Zoom Daddy is still full of joy and eccentricity—musically traveling from lounge jazz to polka, psychedelic pop to offbeat alt-rock, with layers of vocals and textures that reward deep listening.

Now, for the first time ever on vinyl, this cult classic has been remastered by Rob Colwell and pressed on striking 2-LP Opaque Yellow Vinyl, housed in a Deluxe Gatefold Jacket. All the rich extras collectors crave — rare photos, band bios, and classic critical reviews—have been carefully adapted and integrated into the gatefold layout, creating a full immersive experience for fans and collectors alike.

If Let’s Spin was the Eddies at their quirkiest, and Outdoor Elvis at their sharpest, Zoom Daddy is their most visionary and haunting—an album that sounds like nothing else before or after.

Limited to 300 copies. Take the journey. Zoom in. Spin out. Worship weird.
Welcome to Zoom Daddy.
