White Horse (album)


White Horse is the title of the first solo album by Michael Omartian, released originally in 1974, on Dunhill Records and subsequently re-released on Myrrh Records as both a single album and as a compilation of White Horse and Adam Again. Integrating elements of funk, gospel, and progressive rock, White Horse is considered by some critics of contemporary Christian rock music, including Marty Phillips of Jesus Rock Legends, to be one of the most influential and revered albums of the genre.
In his Allmusic review, Mark W.B. Allender wrote, "... this record cooks from beginning to end. Christian Contemporary Music has never been so hip. CCM in general has a reputation for being watered down and unemotional, but this record squeaked through without any dilution at all... this record is his masterpiece."
