Silverwind’s self-titled debut album in 1980 was sometimes billed as “the Christian Abba” due to the sound they put out on the lead track “Taking The Narrow Street” and several of the others. The distinctive sound of two female lead singers in harmony is what makes it for Silverwind. John Rosasco helped ensure success for this album by producing the band’s debut. John also made records with City Limits, Rick Cua, Joe English, Stormie Omartian, Steve Camp and others.

Just saw the entry for Silverwind’s premiere album, self-titled, and was very disappointed that you blew off the singers–Betsy Hernandez, Patty Forney and Georgian Banov, whom I became acquainted with and friends with Betsy for awhile until we lost touch. They MADE the sound with their voices, and though ministry called them in different directions after their third album, their music is still played on K-Love 1980’s.
