==Reissues== This album frequently appeared at the top of Christian Music magazine readers polls of the "album that people most wanted to see released on CD," until its eventual reissue on CD in 2000. It was listed at No. 63 in the book ''[[CCM Presents: The 100 Greatest Albums in Christian Music]]''.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Granger |first1=Thom |title=CCM: The 100 Greatest Albums in Christian Music |date=2001 |publisher=Harvest House Publishers |isbn=9780736902816}}</ref> The CD re-release stirred controversy among Daniel Amos fans by the inclusion of two bonus tracks: Tribute recordings that Norman recorded for the ''[[When Worlds Collide: A Tribute to Daniel Amos]]'' CD that he decided to include at the end of the ''Horrendous Disc'' CD. The covers sung by Norman were of his favorite Daniel Amos song – "Hound of Heaven". One recording was a straight-ahead tribute version of the song and the second tribute recording was a version using a very laid–back jazz band. The decision to include these cover tracks on the CD, along with some long, wandering liner notes, bewildered DA fans.<ref>{{cite web |last1=low5point |title=Horrendous Disc - Daniel Amos |url=https://greatestchristianalbums.wordpress.com/2010/03/01/4-horrendous-disc-daniel-amos/ |website=The Greatest Christian Albums of All Time |date=March 2010 |publisher=low5point |access-date=June 19, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Baldwin |first1=Steven |title=The Phantom Toolbooth Sept. 2000 |url=http://www.danielamos.com/da/horrendousdisc/reviews.html |website=Daniel Amos |publisher=Steven Baldwin |access-date=20 June 2020}}</ref> Daniel Amos had approached Norman and Solid Rock Records about putting together a "Deluxe Edition" of ''Horrendous Disc'' in 2006 with the original Horrendous Disc on the first disc and many bonus tracks on the second disc. Norman's health delayed the project and he died before it could be finished. In the years that followed Norman's death, DA has once again began to work with Solid Rock to create the ultimate ''Horrendous Disc'' reissue. Work on the deluxe edition, a collaborative project between Stunt Records and Solid Rock Records, with a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign to generate the production budget, began in 2017.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/946153346/daniel-amos-horrendous-disc-deluxe-edition|title=Daniel Amos - Horrendous Disc (Deluxe Edition)|website=Kickstarter|access-date=August 14, 2018}}</ref> Due to the success of the campaign, what started as a plan to simply re-release the album with one or two bonus discs, grew into a definitive five-CD box set, five-vinyl box set and a book, ''The Horrendous Book''. The five-CD box set was released on July 20, 2018.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.musictap.com/2018/08/08/cd-review-daniel-amos-horrendous-disc-ultra-deluxe-cd-edition/|title=CD Review: Daniel Amos, "Horrendous Disc Ultra Deluxe CD Edition" - …essential|website=www.musictap.com|date=August 8, 2018 |access-date=August 14, 2018}}</ref>
