Larry Norman - Presence Of The Lord - [Eric Clapton Cover]

Visit My Site: http://larrynormanlyrics.com ----------------------------------------------------------- Larry Norman - Presence Of The Lord ~ (Cover) ~ Track 6 (Words and Music: Eric Clapton & Eric Patrick) From the Album "Streams Of White Light Into Darkened Corners" ~ (Solid Rock Records 1977) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Personnel: • Larry Norman: Vocals, Guitar, Percussion, and Piano • Randy Stonehill: Introduces each song as a West Coast DJ, The Surf Duke, Guitar, backing vocals • Charles Norman: Guitars ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In the early 70's, frustrated by the music industry's intention to dilute the impact of Jesus rock through the many religious songs that mainstream artists chose to record and the fallacious rumors that celebrities like Clapton had been saved, Larry Norman wrote various hard hitting features that magazines and papers wouldn't print. As a second line of attack he decamped to his home with a pile of recording equipment and a few friends to record a series of tongue in cheek cover version. Randy Stonehill introduces the songs in the style of an OTT egotistical West Coast DJ, The Surf Duke, and frankly this has some hysterically funny moments! Their acoustic version of Norman Greenbaum's "Spirit In The Sky" is absolutely hilarious! Larry's imitation of Mick Jagger on the Stones' "Shine A Light" is outrageous and the segue of "Bridge Over Troubled Water", "Let It Be" and "My Sweet Lord" is suitably respectful . until we get to the disco break in the latter song and Larry again adopting Mick Jagger mode starts singing, "I'm So Bored". Call me iconoclastic but these songs deserve to be ripped apart! After the Clapton rumors of conversion which surface every five years or so, "Presence Of The Lord" is given a straight rendition although it's worth bearing in mind Larry reports that Clapton wrote it to express escaping from the police who wanted to bust him for drugs! This CD release closes with two bonus tracks which did not appear on the original vinyl release. This time they're introduced by Larry's Big Bomber DJ alter-ego on Radio K.R.A.P. and include another great Mick Jagger impersonation on "I Am Waiting". Mischievous yet making an important contribution cataloging counterfeit "Christian" culture. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Larry's Site: http://www.larrynorman.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------
