    Album Info & Lyrics

    Terry: "Everybody says we do concept records, and I guess in a way we do. We haven't done them in a while, but I think everyone puts that tag on us. This is a deliberate attempt to do a concept record." (1996)
    "One day, Tim, Greg & I were sitting in Tim’s rehearsal hall, and Tim had these old records on the wall. There was one with an old couple on it, in front of Oak Creek Canyon. I thought, `Hey, what would it be like to explore their lives?’ I took that up and built the lyrics around it. We even used the original cover. It was the picture of this exact couple, and the name of the album was `Songs Of The Heart’, released in like 1963. We used a fictional name for the couple in the record." (Source: “To Craft The Night Watch: An Interview With Terry Taylor” by Devlin Donaldson, Mars Hill Review 5, Summer 1996)

    The couple's real names are Bob and Elsa Beckendorf. They were a singing duo from the 50's and 60's from Sedona, Arizona - which happened to be the home of Terry's paternal grandparents.
    During some final recording sessions for the album, Tom Howard dropped by the recording studio for a visit and after hearing some songs and the concept, announced that he remembered the Beckendorf's sing at his Church in '61. He even remembered the song and graced the band with his rendition of "Meet Me In The Morning".
