Here’s a short video on bringing Undercover together in 1988 to record Oh Come All Ye Faithful for the Broken Christmas album. It was tricky! We were not a functioning band, having gone off in different directions. We not only brought the band together again in the midst of our hiatus, but also included Bill Walden in the recording. It still sounds good after (gulp) 23 years! There will be more clips sharing some stories, about the release and the artists involved.
The record is now available (legitimately) for the first time in at least 15 years, on Innocent Media/ Brainstorm Artists, distributed by Frontline Records. You can finally pick up the whole record here.
I’ve always really enjoyed this whole disc…glad to hear it’s out again (and just in time for Christmas, too…)!
Gee….I don’t remember any tension ever happening.
Thanks Joe, it’s a joy to hear this, and it was a blessing to be invited.
Love ya old friend…
Thanks, Bill. Proud to share this heritage with you and the other “heads” (melon, knuckle, block and chowder).

There was a Christmas Album or at least song. No way.
That was a great christmas album. I still have it. I loved “oh come all ye faithful” …nicely arranged.
One of my all time favs. The Undercover version of O come All Ye Faithful was a must play every Christmas for years on The Sound of Light radio show. I was ina Christian band in Highschool and we did a cover of the holidays silent night. Also a fav to this day. Gotta love Adam Again’s input as well. I had always wished the Level Heads Momento Mori was more like their Christmas stuff and i wished the Reign had music I could find as well.
Hey Ojo! Just bought your track directly from Amazon.com’s mp3 store:

Man, I first hear this song in 1993 and it’s still fresh. Thanks for the awesome memories!
Followed your note to hear and was thrilled to find the song on the Anthology. Because it was a Christmas song I hadn’t given it much thought, …until this time of year. It was cool to see and hear some of the story behind the recording.Thanks.
