Anthony Ray

Progressive Rock
Leeds, England, United Kingdom

Here is the story of the album: “Senior nursing officer Anthony Ray had been writing music for a hobby when, in 1990, after getting himself converted, he got the idea to write an album based on the book of Revelation (ambitious or what?). After several months researching this most mysterious of prophetic books, Anthony approached a large studio in Leeds and began recording, hiring in session musicians and singers and running up, by Christian music standards, a mega-bill of 10,000 smackers. Anthony was skint and the album was still only half finished, but such was the vision he'd managed to impart about the project that the studio took over financing it and when completed released it on their own label Active Records.” (from the Crossrhythms review by Tony Cummings, July 1, 1992)

A second album on the same theme was originally planned for early 1992, but it is unknown if that was ever released.
