Danny and Sharon Owen on Mission

Brother and sister music evangelists Danny and Sharon Owen with Music Ministry and Forest Park Baptist Church in Joplin issued an 11-song Lp entitled For Those Tears on Mission Records in the mid-1970s.

Danny and Sharon did the vocals and Kathi Henry from Joplin played piano. Another Joplinite, Steve Davenport, played bass. On drums was Darrel Campbell from Mt. Vernon, Mo. Lead guitarist Chuck Jackson from Independence, Mo., chipped in on one song while Sharon played on all the rest.

A nice color shot of Danny and Sharon in vintage clothing graces the front album cover (taken by Murwin Mosler) and a casual, black and white shot of the group is on the back.
