The Models – “Models”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I know nothing about this band, except their Canadian, from Edmonton Alberta and that like, there’s a wet girl on the cover.

Allen Buchanek – “Saved By Fire”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “In Corinthians Paul speaks of those who would be saved “so as by fire.” Allen Buchanek has a testimony that fits Paul’s expression.  Allen was a typical 19-year-old college student, living for a good time in the big city – without thought of God or spiritual values – when tragedy...
