Notes

This is on the back cover of the LP:

Enlightment has been inspired to give the youth and mass audiences the type of progressive contemporary inspirational music they have been waiting for. Music that is easy listening, relaxing and enjoyable with a message to revive you from life's perplexities. We realize centuries bring a different breed of people into existence. Although, God's love and grace remains the same forever, the world changes with each generation.

Society must understand God is inspiring his people to branch out to the secular music market, to reach everyone. Inspirational music must reflect today's life styles, so that the message *faith is the key* can become a reality for all people. Enlightment is bringing you inspirational music of today. From our style, we're anticipating an audience who likes good music. People who help us make inspirational music a top priority in the music industry.

It is a pleasure to present this album to you, in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

- Larry H. Jordan

There are certain records out there that I have to be honest with myself and come to the conclusion that I will never own an original copy of. If I find it out in the "wild", that's one thing but even that is getting harder to do nowadays. When the asking price is $2000 for a sealed original, it's best to just accept a reissue and move on. Thankfully, these fine chaps have made a quality reissue worth owning: https://www.discogs.com/Enlightment-Faith-Is-The-Key/release/9959290
Plus it's a gatefold sleeve that includes the story behind the release and instrumental versions of their most popular tracks "Burning Love" and "Agape Love".
