Another rarity-Amy Grant performing "Father's Eyes"-taped for a tv show locally here in 1979, but don't believe was ever used for a aired show although a couple of other ones taped at the same time were. From the master.

2022 Update: Taped for Roy Hicks Jr.'s Koinonia TV show in Eugene, Oregon. I really don't know whether all the songs I've upped from the taping aired or not, because I don't have the final show master. In any event you can find all the songs from that taping by searching Amy Grant and Koinonia now. I'm told Amy doesn't remember doing this, but those of us that were here at Faith Center then certainly do, and it's nice to be able to share that with you.

    So sweet, innocent, and charismatic. It's no wonder she blossomed into the music legend she has become.

    Beautiful!! This moved me to tears. What a blessing it was for me to discover Amy as a kid back in 1982 and to be touched and influenced by songs like this ever since! Thank you, Amy, for letting God's light shine through you for over 40 years!

    I’ve always loved her. My mom used to play this song back in the 1980’s.

    She is phenomenal. Discovered her about 1980-1981. She's awesome!

    Now, THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL an extremely well preserved video roll, probably straight off the 1" Spool "U-Matic™" Broadcast Tape Cartridge, complete with title cards & a slightly unedited intro. I know I'm doing this comment in "Engineering & Technical-speak", yet still, even us old & retired Christian Soundstage & Post-Production engineers and directors, still fully appreciate & cherish these retro, vintage recordings, that were given the meticulous foresight to preserve & "handle-it-with-care" notion, for more than 4 long decades.
