Note: Simultaneously released on cassette and CD by KMG Records. There are two versions of Blue Plate Special. There is the original CCM version and a European version, which cuts some of the more religiously oriented tunes in favor of more secular material. A few of the cuts were later recycled on Altizer’s 2001 effort All Tie Zur, a quasi best-of set on secular power pop label Not Lame Records.
A full-page advertisement for Rick Altizer’s Blue Plate Special was featured in the May 1998 issue of CCM Magazine.
