A few live versions of his more well known songs, a few outtakes from studio rehearsals for a never completed album, and a couple of cool clips of Larry and Randy Stonehill hanging out in the studio practicing harmony arrangements. This is a great CD for fans and friends alike! Fun too!

The Lost Artifacts Of An American Poet - PART II

This is the followup to the very well received Mark Heard demos collection we put out in 2007. Once again, Mark's subtle humor, poetic observations, and devotion to Jesus shine through on this great collection of songs. The description of Part 1 applies to this CD as well:

When Mark Heard died of a heart attack at age 41, the world lost a musical visionary and Larry lost one of his closest friends. In his short lifetime, Mark released 16 albums, but recorded many more songs which were never released. Until now. A recent foray into the vaults yielded several artifacts that Mark recorded during his time at Solid Rock, some of them never before heard. We've included them on this collection of songs written by a true American poet, ten tracks filled with Mark's trademark wit and wisdom.

"Mark Heard was my dear friend. We were always loyal to each other, which is what you need when things start falling down around you. We continued to work together in the studio almost up to the time of his death. He was perhaps the gentlest and kindest of any musician I have ever known. He never said anything negative about anyone, at least not to me". - Larry Norman

This is the long awaited anthology that will be released by The Arena Rock Recording Company on May 27th. It is now available for pre-orders and will be shipped to you on May 27th. This ultra deluxe remastered CD includes a 24 page full-color booklet featuring exclusive photos, printed lyrics, and a song-by-song description of how and why the songs were written.

"To best understand Larry Norman, you should realize that the man is a dichotomy, in the grandest sense of the world. While other rock stars existed to follow the prepackaged template to a tee even if that meant punishing another seemingly innocent hotel room Norman existed on an entirely different plain. He was the church boy holding his own in the decadent world of rock music, an insubordinate jester with a rebellious streak that stretched out long before the birth of punk, and a performer whose raw energy, spiritual force, and playful wit made him the endearing rock icon he is today. In Norman you have it all. A man unfairly saddled with the hefty burden of the ''father of Christian rock,'' yet he is a singer whose defiant lyrics and actions were shunned by the church-going status quo. Norman is a saint in a world of sinners, and at the same time, to some, he is a sinner amongst the saints. While other rockers spent their lifetimes trying to emulate Norman, they just couldn't catch the man."

-J Bacca (excerpt from Larry Norman biography included in The Anthology)

Only Visiting This Planet

Only Visiting This Planet is Part One of Larry's trio of records known as The Trilogy.

More than three decades after its release, Only Visiting This Planet is regarded as a landmark recording in the history of contemporary Christian music. Originally released in 1972, the album was voted in 1990 by CCM magazine as the greatest Christian album ever recorded. I can't say we disagree ;-)

The All Music Guide says that "this record truly shines with great lyrics sung to great melodies... the power and passion of "I Wish We'd All Been Ready" is unmistakable and understatedly intense. Other songs such as "The Outlaw" take on the ballad song form to sing about Jesus in a timeless Dylan-esque manner. "The Great American Novel" sings through tears of despair about hypocrisy among both Christians and non-Christians alike. This is the record that begat a thousand clichés, but the sincerity with which Norman's message is delivered belies any skepticism for the triteness of his words. Sarcasm and humor also grace this record in the form of "I Am the Six O'Clock News" and "Reader's Digest." This record is a one-of-a-kind collection."

So Long Ago The Garden

So Long Ago The Garden, part two of a trilogy that included Only Visiting This Planet and In Another Land, was attacked by the Christian press when it came out in 1973. Controversial at the time for both its lyrical content and "provocative" album cover, it has gone on to become one of the most respected releases in Larry Norman's career.

"...there are plenty of highlights, including "Christmas Time," with its footloose Rolling Stones swagger, and the incredible "Meet Me at the Airport (Fly, Fly, Fly)." Lyrically, this is one of Norman's more elliptical efforts in terms of its Christian references; however, the message is quite clear. Just underneath the '70s British rock dialect and shimmering songwriting is a defiant sermon that staunchly proclaims Norman's identity as a devout Christian outsider." - All Music Guide

Live at Seaside - DVD

This is a beautifully filmed DVD or Larry and the seven other people he brought from America to Skjaersgaard for the Seaside Festival. The multi-camera shoot is right up in your grill as they moved invisibly around the stage capturing the concentration and joy of the band. It was called by many "the best concert Larry Norman ever did."

The majesty and musicanship of the players on stage and the background singing support is what made the performance sound more like a stereo recording on virgin vinyl.

The concert was full of surprises. Larry brought his neighbor, Mark Lemhouse, the winner of the Muddy Waters award and two nominations for two W.C. Handy Awards and for Best Contemporary Blues Album, the 2004 Grammy Award .

And after this amazing concert DVD closes with a very strong performance of "I Wish We'd All Been Ready" Solid Rock has added the famous concert from long ago, when the group Himlavasen backed him up for Christian music's very first, live, on the spot concert web caste.

Live at Elsinore - DVD

The old man came out to play at the most celebrated theater in the capitol city of Salem, Oregon. He sold out the concert in the large, historic Elsinore Theatre and broke all existing merchandise sales by three or four times. He charmed the city of Salem as he displayed his gifts to the uninitiated. Not only had so many travelled from countries all around the world to see this concert, but the unchurched Salemites poured in and Larry gave them a variety show that was too long for one DVD. He brought five blind boys from Liberia, Africa to sing, Julie Hoy the well-known Catholic chanteuse, Michael Manning and his Musical Saw, the greatly talented Severin Sisters, a set of twins who play bluegrass banjo, fiddle, guitar, mandolin and cello. And for a final surprise, the lead singer for The Pixies, Black Francis nee Frank Black (. . . the single biggest source of inspiration for Kurt Cobain and Nirvana and the whole grunge movement, Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam, etc.)

This is quite an amazing film; more like a fast-paced variety show and this is the best video / DVD that Larry has ever released.

This is considered Randy's best album by critics and fans alike. Stonehill wrote King of Hearts, Lung Cancer lament and Keep Me Runnin' which clearly demonstrate his ability to be hilarious, poetically sensitive and all out, straight ahead with his rock numbers. The traditional song "Good News" is given new life in this version. This album is an important cornerstone to modern Christian music. Bonus tracks include Norman and Stonehill writing an unreleased song, "Heart Lock."

Guards of Metropolis - Alligator

Larry's brother Charles and his band: Influences from the laid-back northern reaches of Scandinavia and the frantic West Coast of America collide on the Guards of Metropolis' debut album in a shimmering example of the best that both countries have to offer. A fistful of angst-driven rock and roll riffs tempered by the layered harmonies that Scandinavian groups are famous for lay the groundwork for this rock-pop manifesto. Think ABBA meets AC/DC...and then think again. Each song comes as a stylistic surprise, and the lyrics are almost literary at times; songs such as "Tired" and "Postcards From Heaven" shine a pastel light on the bi-polar human condition, while the songs "Already Gone" and "Don't Wanna Be Like You" throw contemptuous epithets at the vacuous lifestyles of the Hollywood hangers-on they encountered while writing the album in Los Angeles. Rage never sounded as pretty as it does on this stunning debut!

2. Exhole
3. Don't Wanna Be Like You
4. Down
5. How Does It Feel (To Be Unreal?)
6. The Way You Are

What the press is saying about Guards Of Metropolis:

"9 out of 10 - Instant Hit!" - Outburn Magazine

"A likely candidate to appear not only on modern radio,
but also in television and film" - Cashbox Magazine

"Accomplished songwriting and a stylized sonic flamboyance - LA Weekly

"Instant candidate for the cover of Rolling Stone" - East Bay Express

"More hooks than a Montana fishing trip" -- Music Biz

Indie Musicians Of The Week (April 21, 2007) - If Not Now, When Magazine

Randy Stonehill - The Sky Is Falling

The Sky Is Falling has been out of print for years. This is a re-issue with a new booklet, new photos, brand new e.q. and new mastering done with new technology. This sounds great and these thirteen songs are among some of Randy's most significant compositions. "Postcards From The Heart" was recorded during The Sky Is Falling Sessions. It is about Randy's parents. "King of Hearts" is the full orchestra version which Randy wanted to make. The rock version was released instead. This is that orchestral version. "Good News" is from the audio-synch version of the movie BBC released. Larry produced the session and organized the booking and has the 24 track 2" tapes of it. He hopes to release the entire Stonehill and Band concert by next year.
