Description: BRAND NEW, FACTORY SEALED CD. This compilation reportedly was put together by asking fans to name their favorites, and the result is not a hits collection (The Absolute Best pretty much covered that aspect of Carman's career), but it does demonstrate the range of the singer's talents. Heart of a Champion is a generous, two-CD selection of a decade's worth of Carman's particular oeuvre. Extraordinarily eclectic, this New Jersey native of Italian ancestry, who was in his mid-forties when he released this compilation, jumps from one popular music style to another, unafraid to turn to rap and funk for one song ("Who's in the House") and adult contemporary light pop for another ("I Promise"), before switching to the early-'60s rock & roll style of Gary U.S. Bonds ("Sunday School Rock"). One of the most successful performers in the history of contemporary Christian music, Carman was born Carman Domenic Licciardello on January 19, 1956. He was saved at an Andrae Crouch concert, and later discovered by Bill Gaither; he eventually founded his own ministry and recording arm. Debuting in 1982 with Some-O-Dat, he issued a series of LPs which gradually launched him to the top of CCM playlists, and between 1987 and 1989 he was named Charisma magazine's readers' choice for favorite male vocalist for three consecutive years. In 1990, Carman was also named Billboard's CCM Artist of the Year, with his LP Revival of the Land winning Album of the Year honors; he won countless awards in the years to follow, as well as a series of gold and platinum records. Please see photos for track listing. Please take a look at the photos for a good indication of item condition as well as information regarding label, year of production, UPC codes, catalog numbers & possible record club versions. I do not use stock photos, I use photos of the actual CD you will receive and I'm happy to provide extra photos to you directly if there is something else you'd like to see. I usually can ship the same day or the next after you purchase and I package all CD's securely inside a bubble mailer, sandwiched between two pieces of sturdy cardboard for added protection.

I am easy to work with, will treat you fairly & respectfully and do all I can to resolve any problems. Thanks for checking out my auctions and have a good one. I do combine shipping for multiple wins, (but only if I ship them all in one package). First CD is $3.49, any additional CD's are $1.00 each. (I only charge for actual shipping and a small cost to cover my shipping materials). Please send me an email if you plan on bidding on several discs and I will wait to ship them all together.
