Back to the Rock! is a Christian music compilation sampler album that was released in 1981 on Maranatha! Music's A&S Records label. The album features music from their roster of artists including John Melher and Malcolm and the Mirrors, plus songs by Tamarack (on two tracks), Tim Koller and Rob Mehl. Leslie Phillips was first heard on this album with her first song "Bring Me Through." This was before she signed a recording contract with Myrrh Records. Phillips re-recorded "Bring Me Through" for her debut album Beyond Saturday Night (1983). An early recording of "Child of the Father" was recorded by Mike & Von Rogers. Christian rock singer Mylon LeFevre covered the song for his debut Christian album Brand New Start (1982) featuring his band Broken Heart.
