After a too-long hiatus attending meetings with Su Perbusy, most of the 3D's are back, this time with a look back to the year 1987. Russ Taff and The Imperials both released career records that year, while newcomers like Magaret Becker and Steven Curtis Chapman burst onto the scene.  Join Dan and Derek (and a special robot guest) as they go back in time to the year 1987. --- Show Note: Dan mentioned the YouTube guitarist who performs covers of Dann Huff solos. Actually, there are two of them. First, there is the unnamed guitarist at the White Guitar Channel. Here he is covering Dann's solo on "Never Wanna Go Back" by Geoff Moore and two different Dann solos on the song "Unexpected Friends." The second YouTuber is guitarist Kristian Larsen. Here is Krisian covering Dann's solo from Smitty's "Cross of Gold" and the iconic solo on "Secret Ambition." --- Dan Day is a semi-retired, former small business owner in the Wichita area.

Dave is still stuck in meetings with Su Perbusy, so Dan and Derek are continuing to look back, this time to the year 1988. An a cappella vocal group burst onto the scene that year, Phil Keaggy paid homage to the Beatles, and Amy Grant released her career-defining album. Oh, and it was also the year of "Awesome God."

With the recent passing of Imperials founding member Armond Morales, the 3D's thought it was a good time for a deep dive into the 1988 album Free the Fire. The album brings back all of the Imperials members from the previous album (This Year's Model) but trends in a slightly different direction. Join the 3D's this week as they dive deep into the album that causes us to reconsider the importance of wild geese.   --- Dan Day is a small business owner in the Wichita area.

This week the 3D's take a look back and review the year 1986. What was going on in the world. What was hot on non-Christian radio. And, of interest to listeners of this podcast, what was happening in CCM that year? The year 1986 in CCM consolidated gains made the previous year. New albums from Michael W. Smith, Petra, and Stryper pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible for the genre.  Join the 3D's as they go back in time to the year 1986. --- Dan Day is a small business owner in the Wichita area.
