The Roar of Love

I just read a beautiful interview with Annie Herring, who used to be a member of the band, “The 2nd Chapter of Acts”. The interview is about an album they did in the 70s called “The Roar of Love”, which was kind of a gospel, Jesus-music, rock opera inspired by The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis. I bought the album on cassette tape when I was 17 and a new Christian, and I listened to it over and over again. The interview brought back many memories, so I’ve put the CD on my wish list.

Sadly, I had to take Roar of Love off my iPod’s JMO playlist. It just doesn’t do well getting shuffled in random order with all those other songs. But once a year or so I play it straight through. It’s dated, sure, and way more synth than I usually like. But it’s a great album.

One of the best . records . ever. Hands . down.

Great interview — she’s one of those who never outgrew the charism in charismatic.
