FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q - What CD's are actually available for ordering?
A - Only the ones listed in our online store and / or printable order form. If we run out, we will remove it from both places. If we have it available for you to order, it will be there! Don't order anything you don't find in the credit card store or that you can't find on the printable order form.

Q - What CD is the song "________" on?
A - A good place to start is the Larry Norman Song Matrix that Jim Böthel has put together. You can also see the songs included on each CD in the secure online store. Failing that, feel free to contact us if you are looking for a song and can't find it.

Q - I Heard that Larry was a backslider or a glider pilot or something. Is it true?
A - There's an entire web site that addresses a lot of the nonsense propagated recently by a certain rotund gossipmonger. It's at the Truth About Larry Norman web site. If you hear of any new rumors, please let us know. We love them!

Q - Can I look around in the secure online store even if I don't have a credit card?
A - Sure you can. You can walk into 7-11 without actually purchasing a Slurpee can't you? Same thing with the online store. Take a look around. Browse for hours if you want. Nothing will be charged to your card unless you want it to be. And there's no guy behind the counter telling you to buy something or get out!

Q - Is it okay if I, like, do a cover of one of Larry's songs on my CD, or print his lyrics in my church songbook?
A - Yes. With a few conditions. If you want to include Larry's songs in your church songbook or campfire singalong notebook then go right ahead. Roast a few marshmallow over the fire for us while you're at it. If you want to cover one of his songs on your independent, self-produced CD (ie., not on a major label) the price is one hundred dollars ($100), an autographed copy of your CD, and info on who you are and where you're from.
If you are a "bigger" artist or band or are signed to a label, you must adhere to the accords of the Library of Congress Copyright Office Federal Register. 37 CFR Part 201 [Docket No. RM 2001-6] pertaining to Compulsory licensing, and pay the current performing rights statutory rates. Blah blah blah blah blah. Lawyers, Shmawyers.
IN OTHER WORDS, if you are making your own CDs in your basement, cool. Good for you. "Do it yourself" is the only way to go! Throw us a Ben Franklin, a copy of your disc, and a letter saying "howdy dudes"and we'll call it even. If you are a "professional mewsician" on a major label, then ask the company lawyer to fill out all the necessary paperwork so you can concentrate on writing some good songs or learning the midi-sitar or something. And if you are typing up the lyrics to "I Wish We'd All Been Ready" to sing around the fire along with "Kum Ba Ya" at your church camp-out, then don't forget your mosquito repellent.

Q - Can I send my demo tape to you guys? I want to be on Solid Rock Records or get your opinion on my tunes!
A - Larry has gotten thousands of demos over the years, and only signed a few artists such as Mark Heard, Randy Stonehill, Daniel Amos, etc. So while we will listen to your CD, we can't promise to give you any feedback and don't want you to get disappointed if you don't hear from us, because you most likely won't. Sorry if that sounds awful, we just can't respond to everyone. We'd love to hear your music though.
