Dave Deeks: Let Go - Let God
'Good listening - a modern, sophisticated sound, with well thought out lyrics. .....Dave has skills that many secular artists would envy' (Christian Music)
'Let go, let God' was Dave's first album and became available in December 1985, with a simple blue printed cover. Shortly afterwards it was adopted by Bob Cranham's newly formed 'Bridge' label, and gained its striking artwork. Christian producer Bob had heard demos of Dave's songs, felt that they were worthy of an album, and offered to undertake the project. It was recorded and mixed at Porcupine Studio, Mottingham, London, during the November. The cost was met through gifts and loans from supportive friends.
Most of the songs were chosen from around 100 that Dave had written over the previous three years since beginning his singing ministry, although the title track had come about only a few days before recording was due to commence. At that time, Bob was singer Helen Shapiro's music director - and Helen agreed to contribute to backing vocals on the album. It was subsequent to this that Helen became a Christian and began her own Gospel music career.
By January 1986 the Dave Deeks Band had formed, and gave their first public performance of tracks from 'Let go. let God' at Brunswick Methodist Church, Newcastle. The band continued to perform during 1986 but then the time came for the members to go their separate ways. Dave continued with his solo music ministry.
'Good listening - a modern, sophisticated sound, with well thought out lyrics. ..... I can't find fault with Dave's musical style and ability'.... Styles include jazz, rock, ballads, a touch of reggae and even one piece of near hymn-like quality. Is it true manages to convey the wonder the disciples must have felt towards the fact that Jesus had risen. Another high point is Fairytale. Dave has skills that many secular artists would envy' (Christian Music)
