John Michael Talbot Come to the Quiet CD 1980

Beginning in the late 1960s with Mason Proffit pioneering the Country Rock that became the mainstay of modern Country Music, John Michael went on to be part of the more radical founding generation of the newly forming Christian Contemporary Music in 1976.

John Michael Talbot's album Come to the Quiet is a prayerful and meditative work adopted from the Psalms of David. "When you have something good to say," Talbot suggests, "you shouldn't be afraid to share it."

Talbot has produced more than forty recordings over the years with sales around four million albums. His songs were the first by a Catholic artist to cross well-defined boundaries and gain acceptance by Protestant listeners. Due to his expansive popularity, he was the recipient of several prestigious awards. In 1982 he won the Dove Award for Worship Album of the Year, "Light Eternal" with producer and longtime friend, Phil Perkins. Four years later, he became one of only nine artists to receive the President's Merit Award from the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences and, in 1988 he was named the No.1 Christian Artist by Billboard magazine.

Talbot is not the type of person who would rest on well-deserved laurels. He has also authored fourteen books, written numerous magazine articles and performs up to fifty concerts a year. "When you have something good to say," Talbot suggests, "you shouldn't be afraid to share it."
