In 1989 Steve Taylor put together Chagall Guevara with the goal of conquering the secular record charts. After a flurry of bass players they finally put out this their first album in 1991. It didn't do great but I do remember the single "Violent Blue" getting some airplay in my market in Canada. Strangely the entry for the band in Wikipedia states "All of the band members had histories within the Christian music industry, but the band was an effort to depart from the CCM industry. Despite this, the band still performed at the exclusively Christian music festival Cornerstone, and had their music (albeit against their wishes) distributed through Christian bookstores." This is absolutely and completely untrue. The band had signed a distribution deal with Sparrow records as well as MCA Records. Obviously they knew Sparrow would distribute it in Christian books stores as that's the only place they distributed to. Even if Steve has encouraged this rumour it is a complete lie. This was the only album from the band and MCA obviously didn't think the hassle of Steve Taylor was worth it. Personally I moderately like the album but I don't think it's very good luck to name your band after a murderous, Marxist, dictator wannabe, just saying.
