Legendary Jesus Rock band Wilson McKinley, of Spokane,
Washington, known as one of the best 1970s garage bands of the Pacific
Northwest, has released volume one of an anthology of digitally remixed
original recordings.
The 70-plus minute CD titled Anthology One: Message
Brought to Us is the first time their pioneering Jesus People tracks
have been re-released in any format, and feature an all-digital remix from the
original reel to reel master tapes.
Those familiar with the band’s 1970s recordings will be
pleasantly surprised at the clear and clean new mix, and new fans will be
amazed at the band’s energetic delivery, clarity of message and top-notch
musicianship.

Now I’m A Jesus Freak,
the new double CD, 45-track album,
AVAILABLE NOW!
The first CD contains the complete tracks of Spirit of Elijah and
Heaven's Gonna Be a Blast (their two most famous albums) in a completely new
digital remix, rounded out with three other album tracks making their CD debut.
Wait! There’s More! There’s also an entire second CD of unreleased material
that contains some of their best writing and ranges from straight-ahead
rock to country rock to harmony-rich ballads, recorded from 1970 to
1976. All of the best material mentioned in the article at this site made it to
this second CD, including several live tracks where the vocals had to be remixed
to be audible but the musicianship is outstanding. The tracks were all
carefully remixed and restored. It’s like getting an entire new Wilson McKinley
album! In addition, Randy Wilcox and Mike Messer, founding members, have
provided several unreleased tracks each for the second disc. All told, the new
album contains over four times the music of the pirate disc, and at a cheaper
price.
