60s group The Pilgrims remembered with CD release.
ONE OF the earliest exponents in Christian rock music, London-based The Pilgrims have had their music released on CD thanks to the efforts of American record collector Derrick Phillips. The Pilgrims, who recorded spasmodically in the '60s and played Soho beat clubs and coffee bars, are now being heralded as pioneering rock music evangelists.

As the Derrick Phillips mentioned in this report I should point out that I am neither American nor a record collector. The record collector is a guy called Ed Nadorozny and actually, he's Canadian! But I do exist, I was a member of The Pilgrims, and the group is remembered on www.pilgrimsmusic.co.uk. Those were great times and their effect continues.
