Artists Acapella -- The Signature Songs
1998
Here to Him Music

This album was a complete surprise to me!  It features well-known Christian artists singing the songs that they made famous (or vice versa) -- their "signature" songs, only this time done acapella.  I immediately bought it because it had First Call, and I was delighted to find it was the original First Call: Marty, Bonnie and Melodie!

Reading some of the liner notes brought even more surprises.  First of all, Bonnie Keen coordinated all the extra background singers.  Secondly, in the long list of background singers are these names: Bonnie Keen, Marty McCall, Melodie Tunney, and ... Marabeth Jordon!  Quite a homecoming -- everyone who has ever been a member of First Call together on one recording!

While acapella music is not my favorite, this is a FANTASTIC album!  Here are the tracks:
