The Bible Album, A Rock Testament was conducted and arranged by Martyn Ford (The Martyn Ford Orchestra) and recorded at Trident and Air Studios in London in 1977. Simon Phillips played the drums for some of the songs. Most of the songs were written and sung by members of the The Family International.

Background

He was Jean Manson's boyfriend, which was how she became involved in the recordings. Demis Roussos also saw them performing the street and wanted to perform with them.[1]

The album was produced by Paul Buckmaster and Martyn Ford. Martyn Ford conducted all the sessions.
