Interview

(アルバム： Battlefield - 1999)

[Andre:]
We're here with Reverend Norman Hutchins!
And the song "Press Toward The Mark" was a song you originally wrote and recorded
Now was that the beginning of your recording career?

[Rev. Norman Hutchins:]
Yes, Andre. That was a big hit for West Angeles. Uh, that was Saints In Praise. Uh, and also the beginning of my solo career.

[Andre:]
Reverend Hutchins, tell us what's unique about this album.

[Rev. Norman Hutchins:]
Well, what I love about this project is is that when we first talked with JDI records, I shared with them the vision of doing a live record in a church as opposed to the studio and, uh, just roll the tape and just let the anointing fall and, uh, that's what we did.

[Andre:]
And with you being a downhome preacher from North Carolina, that felt natural for you, didn't it?

[Rev. Norman Hutchins:]
It did, Andre. I think that's what made this recording so special. The anointing of God came in so until we forgot we were recording. Uh, we lost half of the choir, had to regroup, and start again and, uh, and so we're excited about this. I believe it's going to bless a lot of people.
