Jars of Clay
"Jars of Clay" (CD)

This groups debut album, released in 1995, has aged a bit, but its impossible to ignore the strength of the group's songwriting. Some of these songs came about while its members were still in school together and wrote music for music recording classes.
This album would be their biggest selling album to-date, certified double platinum, and would receive mainstream airplay.
Sadly, although aspects of the Jars became better and more refined, on a basic level their songwriting was never better than on their first album.
