Review by Jairo Torres

Soldiers of the Light is an outstanding album that showcases the exceptional talents of Andrus And Blackwood. The duo's harmonies are impeccable, and their lyrics are deeply meaningful and spiritually uplifting.

The album features a mix of upbeat and contemplative tracks, all of which are beautifully arranged and expertly performed. From the opening track, "Soldiers of the Light," to the closing track, "I Surrender All," every song on this album is a testament to the duo's faith and their commitment to spreading the message of God's love.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Jesus Is All I Need," a soulful ballad that showcases the duo's vocal range and their ability to convey emotion through their music. Another standout track is "I'm Gonna Keep on Walking," a catchy, upbeat song that is sure to lift listeners' spirits.

About Andrus And Blackwood

Andrus, Blackwood & Company was a racially integrated Contemporary Christian Music group, releasing six albums between 1977 and 1984. The group was composed of two former members of The Imperials, Sherman Andrus and Terry Blackwood as co-lead vocalists. Rounding out the group's first touring band in 1977 were Rocky Laughlin on bass, Tim Marsh on drums, Bob Villareal on guitar and backing vocals, and Karen Voegtlin on keyboards and backing vocals. Other alternating band members between 1978 and 1986 included Billy Blackwood (cousin of Terry Blackwood) on drums, John Mays on bass, Mark Hughes on bass (later with Dobie Gray and owner the world's largest used music store, Mr Mark's Music in Nashville (198090, 2000-2016-current), Jeff Chambers on guitars, Randy Dennis on keyboards, David Ennis (later with country group Restless Heart) on keyboards, Gerritt Wilson on Synths, David Hassell on keyboards and vocals, Mark Burchfield on bass. David Hassell also worked as office manager and tour manager for the group. The group's final performance came in June 1986 at Six Flags theme park in Chicago, IL. At the time the two had left the Imperials, it was one of the most commercially successful acts in CCM. While not songwriters themselves, Andrus and Blackwood were good judges of what CCM radio wanted, developing relationships with Bruce Hibbard, Hadley Hockensmith, Phil Johnson and Tim Sheppard among others. It paid off with a top 10 title track to their 1979 sophomore double-album Following You. During the group's tenure, they placed eight hits on the Christian radio charts including 3 No. 1 hits, "Jesus, You're So Wonderful" (20 weeks,1980-1981).,"Soldier of the Light" (23 weeks,1981). and "Step Out of the Night" (4 weeks,1983). The group appeared as headliners for every major Christian music festival during the late 1970s to mid-1980s, including Disney's Night of Joy, They also appeared on PBS's Austin City Limits musical TV program in 1983. Andrus and Blackwood now occasionally perform in group now called "Elvis' Imperials" with another former Imperials member, Joe Moscheo.

How to Get Saved:

- Realize you’re a sinner and can’t save yourself.
- Believe that Jesus died, was buried, and rose again.
- Believe that His blood is enough to wash away all your sins and make you righteous before God.
- Believe on Jesus to save you. Accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour.

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”
--Ephesians, -2:8-9, -KJV,,
Great music in 1982 great in 2022. I listen to this music when I started teaching. Now that I am near retirement still great to.listen too.
