ALL SONGS WRITTEN BY EMISSARY WERE INSPIRED BY AND DETICATED TO OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!
The 4th of July 1993, aboard a 747, on my way back to San Jose, I was thumbing through a dictionary and came upon the word Emissary. "A messenger sent on a mission". Hmm... a name for a band? Maybe. So meditating on "The Rock of my Salvation", and the stone that had been rolled away to reveal that Christ had risen, I grabbed a pen. Writing music while up in the clouds is quite the experience. TRY IT! 8-)... Anyways, fifteen minutes later, I had written a rock song that looked like this...
EMISSARY
Standin on top of a mountain Lookin down on this town Ridin in after midnite When theres no one else around Rockin this town like a bolt of lightning And were gonna roll away like thunder You aint gonna know our mission baby Or what ROCK we crawled out from under ..YEAH
Weve got a message And were gonna DELIVER Yeah weve got a message baby And were gonna DELIVER Listen closely To what we say The time has come to choose direction And the ROCK is gonna show you the way YEAH
Leo on the g-u-i-t-a-r
Drinkin from the fountain Take a good look around See the flash of WHITE LIGHT Then listen for the sound Rockin this town like a bolt of lightning And were gonna roll away like thunder You aint gonna know what hit ya baby Or what kind of spell your under G-O-S-P-E-L
I was greeted at the airport by my friend and brother in Christ Ozzy. I told him about the song I wrote and he told me "what a coincidence...I ran into and old friend of mine I haven't seen since I was 10yrs old, and he wants us to come over and jam.
He has a studio. I said...yeah right... when? He said "we are already late!". Ozzie read the lyrics then we loaded up the amps and the Charvel, (the drums were already there) and headed over to Bobbies. He also played guitar and was into country music. So we fired up the amps and after a couple of renditions of "Rocky Mountain Way" and some blues...Bobby says "my friend James lives down the street." I said "Oh yeah does he play bass?" just kidding around...and he says.."as a matter of fact". So to keep the story short, James came over with his Bass and "EMISSARY" was born on the 4th of JULY.
EMISSARY went on to right 20 or so more songs that same year! Many we got on tape and a few we didn't. Needless to say Bobby no longer plays country...he's a boni fide
ROCKER...We are vessels to "deliver the message"..hence the name "EMISSARY".
This song of triumph and of redemption and the final defeat of DEATH ITSELF is inspired by and debticated to Christ JESUS Yashua the MESSIAH! ENJOY!
"EMISSARY was recorded "Live" in 1 take at the price of sound quality...for reasons only Management would know!
...ENJOY! Shalom!
