Back In The Day Album! $13.00
Back In The Day
 

Eric's newest release... Eric's answer to many requests for an album of the pop song covers he often does. Very eclectic... just the voice and guitar... sounds just like "live".
Lead Me To Life!  $13.00
Lead Me To Life
 

Eric's fourth album, recorded in 1994 was a bit of an experiment. It is the first album Eric has done with a band. Eric signed that year with a Christian label in L.A. called Whitestone Records. It would be the first album of Eric's music distributed nationally in the U.S., so the company felt it would be best to use many of Eric's older songs that hadn't been heard nationally. The album contains seven songs off of "Because He Lives" and "Taste & See", two new originals and two covers: Dan H's "Little Worlds" and the hymn "Morning Has Broken" which was recorded for Whitestone's Praise compilation album "Breakaway Praise". Phil Keaggy and John Patitucci (of Chick Corea fame) were gracious enough to play on the album as well as a number of other fine LA musicians. One interesting note; when recording the song "Lead Me To Life" the drummer, Dave Smith, had never heard the song before and asked for one run-through to listen and practice before recording. Just for fun, the engineer went ahead and recorded anyway without Dave knowing it. Dave's expertise is such that the practice take was perfect and was kept for the album! "Lead Me To Life" has a full, easy rock feel, with Eric's acoustic foremost in the mix at almost all times. A contemplative, inspirational theme.

Taste & See
 

Eric's third album, recorded in Spokane, WA, in 1990, is all originals, guitar and voice, with a lot of stylistic variety, and a bluesy edge. Eric was listening to a lot of Ry Cooder at the time, which is evident in the roots feel of the album. The blues song, Taste & See, has been Eric's most requested song, and has received a great deal of airplay in Europe. The band version of the song on the "Lead Me To Life" album was included on a blues compilation album put out this year by one of Europe's largest Christian labels, GMI Music.

A Matter of Time
 

Eric's second album, also acoustic guitar and voice only, was a response to requests he had to do an album of pop covers. The album is half covers (James Taylor, David Loggins, Bread, Bill Withers, Simon & Garfunkle) and half original love songs. Eric intended the album to have a consistent easy rock flow. Recorded in Minneapolis in 1987.

Because He Lives
 

This is Eric's first album, consisting of entirely original songs, written by Eric at ages 17 to 22. The album is just voice and guitar, recorded live in one take. The first version was recorded in Sweden in 1985 for $100, selling over 2,000 copies at performances in coffeehouses and schools in Holland, Sweden and Denmark. Then in 1987 Eric re-recorded the songs in Minneapolis to come up with a better quality recording-- the current version. The songs are spiritual and intimate.
