"The early days of Jesus Music wouldn't have been the same without the remarkable presence of Phil Keaggy. While he was already making waves in Christian-themed music with Glass Harp, it was his debut solo album, "What A Day," that truly solidified his status as a beloved singer-songwriter and an unassuming guitar virtuoso within Christian music circles. The album's significance in the realm of Christian rock and CCM is undeniable, placing it alongside other timeless classics from the era.
Now, celebrating it's 50th anniversary, the "What A Day" Deluxe Edition is a testament to the enduring magic of this musical gem. Remastered by the original engineer and co-producer, Gary Hedden, Disc One presents the pristine original album, letting listeners rediscover the soul-stirring fusion of acoustic and electric soft rock, where intricate chords interweave with beautiful flowing melodies.
