Prophet is the debut album by the hard-rock band Prophet, released on 14 August 1985 through Total Experience Records. On 21 September album was released in Japan.
Production[edit]
"Prophet" is the only album to feature lead vocalist Dean Fasano and drummer Ted Poley. The latter joined Danger Danger as a lead vocalist two years later.
The album was recorded within six months: from January to June 1985. The musicians recorded for a month in each studio.
"Prophet" sold well in Europe, and after that the band released the single "Everything You Are (to Me)", for which a music video was soon shot. However, despite the fact that Fasano sang in the video, he actually performed only half of the songs: the tracks "Heart of the Night", "It's Real" and "Listen to Ya'" were performed by Poley, and "Slow Down" — by bassist Scott Metaxas.
