Type: Full-Length/Compilation
Never Say Dinosaur is a tribute album dedicated to Christian rock band Petra. The album includes 11 revisions and re-imaginings of classic Petra songs and one original composition by Kevin Max of dcTalk. Dinosaur contained an eclectic lineup of artists which, at the time, highlighted "some of the best new bands in Christian music".
The album title is a pun on Petra's fourth studio album, Never Say Die. It is also a pun on the title of Petra's irrelevance and age, who at the time had been performing for nearly twenty-five years, by rejecting comparisons of the band with extinct dinosaurs.
The album was released by Star Song Records on June 11, 1996. They worked with the band during most of the 1980s through part of the band's most successful tenure.
