ABOUT THE ALBUM
Originally released 1979, Hold On Tight shows Sweet Comfort Band beginning to move away from the jazz-fusion stylings they had become known for and easing toward the more mainstream rock sound that would become evident on their later releases. The album was produced by Jesus Music veteran, Tom Stipe (Country Faith, Richie Furay Band). The title track scores an early high point lyrically with an inspirational call for struggling believers to hold fast to the truth of Christ, which alone can sustain them. "Carry Me" is an interesting track musically with progressive, moody stylings. "Undecided" is some major ear-candy that exemplifies the sort of melodic pop that gives Top 40 radio something with hooks and a stunning melody! Duncan's voice soars and floats over countless magical, memorable moments by the album's end. This 30th Anniversary Edition comes packaged in a full color digipak with enhanced original artwork and is properly remastered for a high quality audio experience!
