Jesus Sound Explosion

Informationen zum Autor MARK CURTIS ANDERSON teaches writing at the University of Minnesota and lives in St. Paul with his wife, Patricia. Klappentext Mention the record album Jesus Sound Explosion to a typical child of the 1970s and that person is likely to picture one of those collections that used to be shown on TV (Call now! Not available in stores!). When Mark Curtis Anderson spied a copy in a junk store a few years ago! he knew just what he'd found! and the memories of growing up in a Baptist minister's family came flooding forth. Zusammenfassung Anderson's quest for worldliness-through-rock as he came of age under the gaze of his father's entire Baptist congregation. All of the backsliding and revival, idealism and disillusionment one would expect is here, told with delightfully understated humor and set against the sounds of The Guess Who, Yes, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Bruce Springsteen.
