Truth (3)
Although Truth never officially released an LP while they were together, in 1995 a 68-minute CD was salvaged from 1969-70 recordings. Most of them were made for a soundtrack of an obscure film, with three other tracks coming from a Chicago studio session during the brief time in which Ray Elliott was in the band. Perhaps to the surprise of some listeners aware of Truth's Them connections, there's not much of a hard R&B-blues-British Invasion influence. It's far more reminiscent of late-'60s California guitar psychedelia, along the lines of some of the more economic and harmony-driven bands in that style, like Moby Grape and (more distantly) Love.
In this respect, Truth recall Fat Mattress (Noel Redding's group), another act with heavy British Isles roots that took major cues from West Coast harmonized psych, though Truth and Fat Mattress aren't extremely similar. Truth play late-'60s psychedelic rock with a breezy lightness, yet with some guts, anchored by extremely versatile guitar lines by the underrated Jim Armstrong. The songs might not be classic, but they're very pleasant go-with-the-flow period sequences of images, with one vocal (on "Blackboard Words") closely approximating the sound of late-'60s Roger McGuinn. On "Sonic Sitar," the group expands upon the raga-rock explored in the post-Van Morrison Them's best cut, "Square Room," and in fact "Archimed's Pad (Squared Room)" is an impressive instrumental remake of "Square Room" that's an underrated highlight of the whole raga-rock genre, with its hypnotic drawn-out interplay of drones and Indian-influenced guitar melodies. The three songs recorded with Ray Elliott on flute and piano go into jazzier grooves with good effect, adding nice icing to a record that's on the whole better (and certainly more consistent) than either of the late-'60s Them albums on which some of the Truth musicians played.

Truth (6) Christian Gospel
"During the late '60s, John Roger Breland had a dream of starting a Christian band. His goal was to share the message of the Gospel through music. In June of 1971 Breland's dream became a reality with the formation of the group, Truth, an acronym for "Trust, Receive, Unchangeable, True Happiness" in Jesus. The group performed its first tour with only 15 members. Some were barely out of high school. For the first several years of their existence, the group performed 400 concerts annually and traveled 50 weeks of the year. As Truth became more established, they performed 260 live concerts each year, and spent the rest of the time in recording studios. By the beginning of the 21st century, Truth had 22 members, and had traveled to all 50 American states and 21 different countries. The group had produced almost 60 albums and performed before more than ten million people in over 9,000 concerts. In 2000, Truth was accepted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame. The Truth Legacy Collection was released in 2001, shortly after the group performed its farewell tour." from Diana Moes VandeHoef, All Music Guide
They have re-grouped for a 40th Annivesary Tour and with a new melody CD of their works. Several hit artists evolved from the TRUTH, such as Avalon, Natilie Grant and others.

Truth Lyrics

Look
No love, love lost
Lost one, one love
Loved once, once more
More or, less yours
Your call, called off
Off on, on so
We ain't got, no trust
We ain't got, no trust
We ain't got, no trust
We ain't got, no trust
We ain't got, no trust
Trust is somethin' earned not given
I was told I should never burn my bridges
I gotta get an stern like grip in to confirm my friendships
To whom it may concern, just listen
Trust, even I reserve each message
I did not prefer these methods
Observed and learned from wreckage do I deserve my blessings?
What occurred then was gold, what I turn each record
Trust, God provides and serves each lesson
As reminder, that we should not discern his leverage
Get behind him, anytime life exerts its pressure
We're designed to, survive it and reaffirm our efforts
Trust, if you ain't heard this ever
I pray one day that each of my words get treasure
Couldn't outpace her with the Larry Bird like stepper
This how God feels? Being kicked to the curb, displeasure
Trust
No love, love lost
Lost one, one love
Loved once, once more
More or, less yours
Your call, called off
Off on, on so
So rushed, rushed what?
We ain't got, no trust
Trust is somethin' earned not given
I was told I should never burn my bridges
I gotta get an stern like grip in to confirm my friendships
And spread love like germs, infectious
Trust, I understand "marry in haste"
And "repent at leisure," I couldn't carry the weight
Resent my people, or do I bury the shakes?
Or defend my equal for the same cherry I ate?
Trust, I understand I'm embarrassing late
Intense as fevers, set this incendiary ablaze
Respect I'm Caesar, though us'll primarily change
Perplex with features, that carry on like family traits
Trust, was broke in the hotel room
I question you like "What you say?" Jason Derulo
Oh, so I'm an joke to you? Or maybe an fool, whoa
You laughed in my face, even for you that's a new low
Before this we just discussed jumpin' the broom though
You had got us this room though, cause you was my boo though
But we're free to do what we do though
And that night you got laid down like school clothes
I prayed God would give me the kudos
And if it isn't right send a sign and I suffered huge blow
Underneath my wing my rule goes
On my watch you wasn't swept back like a Hublot
And at this time you awoke, and here you go
With all of the play fightin' and from this angle
By degrees it's acute show and then an dispute rose
And it got Harry, and not the kid with the smooth cloak
We end up this way cause of an nigga name you spoke
I still kept a cool tone callin' him will not prove you wrong
Got my answer, I didn't move on
I didn't get cold feet but what I did get is just lukewarm
Trust
No love, love lost
Lost one, one love
Loved once, once more
More or, less yours
Your call, called off
Off on, on so
So rushed, rushed what?
We ain't got, no trust
We ain't got, no trust
We ain't got, no trust
We ain't got, no trust
We ain't got, no trust
