About this episode
Michael W. Smith's first two albums-- Project (1983) and Michael W. Smith 2 (1984), respectively--were fine works, if a bit tentative. With the release of his 1986 album The Big Picture , Smitty tore down the sonic walls and released an album aimed directly at young people and their concerns. Hop aboard the nostalgia train as the 3D's embark on a track-by-track excursion through a classic album that introduced a generation of youth group kids to Lamu, Rocketown, and a girl named Rebecca who was old enough to know. --- The 3D's are Dan, Derek, and Dave.
