Metal Church Classic Live CD

2017 live release from the veteran metal band. Produced by Kurdt Vanderhoof, this special edition release features nine classic Metal Church songs recorded live on their 2016 tour and also includes a special bonus track; a powerful new studio version of "Fake Healer" that features a duet with Queensryche vocalist Todd La Torre. Comments guitarist Kurdt Vanderhoof; "This album not only commemorates the reunion between Mike and the band, but it also pays tribute to some of the more popular songs of that era. It's really cool to see so many old fans and new fans of all ages enjoying these classics as we perform them live, so it only made sense to release this". Mike Howe adds "It's an honor to be back and it makes me very happy to see that almost three decades later, fans are still enjoying these songs!" On the subject of the "Fake Healer" duet with Todd, Mike Howe comments, "The idea came from the owner of our label Rat Pak Records (Joe). It was his idea to record this as a duet with Todd. It's an amazing version and I think fans will be very surprised at how good it sounds!" Queensryche singer Todd La Torre further comments, "Having been a fan of Metal Church since my early teens, never in my wildest dreams would I have ever imagined that the great Mike Howe would re-join the band! Getting the opportunity to record a duet to the track 'Fake Healer' was beyond amazing!"
