High-Quality Expanded 8 Page Booklet with photos and lyrics, Jewel Case CD #97 on HM's TOP 100 CHRISTIAN ROCK ALBUMS OF ALL-TIME Dynamic Remaster Includes Limitied Edition Trading Card #58. Originally Released in 1979. Classic Christian Rock from Early Jesus Music Band D&K. Legends of Rock Edition. Straight On, #97 on HM's TOP 100 CHRISTIAN ROCK ALBUMS OF ALL TIME and the second album by DeGarmo and Key, raised the bar for quality even higher. Eddie and Dana took part in it's production, and established a tight knit band that gelled together like a well-oiled machine. On the opening track, "Jericho," a classic rocker that features impeccable sound quality, we hear a band at the top of their game. On the catchy "Livin' on the Edge of Dyin'," Eddie is featured on lead vocals and this track hit #25 on the Christian radio charts. Flourishes of the progressive rock sound of their debut continue on "Bad Livin'," but the band also mix in elements of gospel and soul on tracks like "I Never Knew You" and funkiness on the classic rocker "Long Distance Runner." There's even some Southern rock flavor blended in on "Let Me Help You Today." This album helped establish DeGarmo and Key as musicians and songwriters of the highest order and is widely considered their masterpiece.
