For Nostalgia's Sake: For the Sake of the Call

If you're like me, you buy music (among other reasons) to stay connected with your history. Recently, I bought Steven Curtis Chapman's For the Sake of the Call, circa 1990, on CD (at a healthy discount), though I have it on cassette somewhere in the back of my closet. It reminds me of my middle school years, when I listened to the album on my Walkman while mowing the yard on steamy summer days.

SCC was the first christen artist I ever heard. I picked up a couple of his tapes from the public library. "Maria" from the album "The Great Adventure" was a song I played while on the first date with my wife. So, yea, I can relate to the "For Nostalgia's Sake"

BTW, we won't mention the first tapes I ever owned. "Tiffany - (self titled)" and "Debbie Gibson - Electric Youth”
