Agape should be remembered as the first Christian hard rockers. A band well ahead of their time. This release captures the intensity of Agape's live performances as well as providing some unreleased studio tracks. The live cuts are taken from an 8-track release which was produced as a promotional item passed around to local radio stations. Only a handful of copies of this ultra-rare 8-track were ever circulated. One copy recently changed hands for $200. Since resurrecting this find we cleaned it up and digitized it as best as the technology allowed." "This 8-track only live recording from a California college gig in 1973 captures the band in just the right jammy guitar-psych mood you hoped for. Extended excursions on tracks from their studio LPs, plus a title track unique to this release; all of it certain to please any fan of westcoast Jesus psych-rock with a dose of Hendrix and keyboard prog/jazzrock. Raw recording with in-yer-face sound and an enthusiastic crowd." -- The Acid Archives
