A lot of 70's fans of Deliverance don't even know that Paul Janz went on to have a successful solo career after Deliverance dissolved. They might further be surprised that he went on to release 4 albums in the secular market. This is the first of those 4 albums. This album was released in Canada (Paul's home country), the U.K., Greece, and Japan. It was not released in the United States. It did very well in the Canadian market with the first single making it to #29 on the Canadian Charts. "Don't Cry Tonight", "High Strung", and "Close My Eyes" were also released as singles but did not do better than #85. Now a quick warning that if you are expecting a Deliverance sound you won't get it and no one from Deliverance appears anywhere on this album other than Paul. Instead this is a straight up 80's pop album. I will be honest that I remember it playing on Canadian radio and I honestly never made the connection to Deliverance until many years later. It should be noted that Paul did not turn on his faith but instead just changed himself to the category of a Christian artist as opposed to an artist doing Christian music.
