**** ALBUM TITLE & LINE-UP CHANGE **** In mid-May, Manna Records announced that the formerly-announced single release of the "It Won't Be Long" CD (projected for fall of 2007) has been ammended. Instead of recording a single, Steve and Manna Records have decided to include the title song "It Won't Be Long" and Steve's popular piece "Give Up Your Burden" (which would have been the "B" track on the single) with other new songs on the full-length "Parables & Promises" album which is slated for release in February of 2008. For those who were looking forward to an earlier single release of "It Won't Be Long", please note that this song is available now as a signed and numbered "Signature Single" or gift CD for $9.95.
