Review

Thirty three years is a long time to rock for Jesus but that is Petra's extraordinary legacy. True pioneers in the genre of Christian rock, Petra was cranking out power chords and singing about salvation when church leaders were appalled that the "rock music" and the Gospel could be put together. Nearly 10 million albums sold, four Grammys, 10 Doves, and a spot in the Gospel Music Hall of Fame later, the band no longer rules the radio or the road, but they can still rock as evidenced on Farewell. Fans will find a balance of live hits spanning four decades with an opening emphasis on more recent numbers like "All About Who You Know," "Dance," and "Amazing Grace." Guitarist Bob Hartman shows no signs of slowing down as he slashes and burns his way through each number, topping off the rock-solid rhythm section of drummer Paul Simmons and bassist Greg Bailey. The release's midsection slows down with a delightful acoustic set featuring special guest appearances from former singer Greg X. Volz and keyboardist John Lawry. The reunion's high moment occurs with an energetic rendering of "Grave Robber." Hartman carries the catchy version of "Beyond Belief" before the band closes with its classic hit "He Came, He Saw, He Conquered." Much of the same can be said for Petra, who laid down a foundation and influenced a whole new genre of rock and roll. --Michael Lyttle
