Tammy Faye: Building on The Rock

Continuing with our Holy Week celebration:
A few tracks from this classic from (Jim &) Tammy & their friends...
...The Devil Is A Sly Old Fox
...We're Marching, Marching
...The Devil's After Me

and my personal favorite...
...Isn't It Grand To Be A Christian





I was going to post this whole album, but! I believe that Tammy Faye is actually offering this album as a reissue on her website. (Go there) As you may know, Tammy's been sick for some time, but she'd rather you pray for others than for her right now. Still, we send a salute and blow a kiss her way. Thanks for this, Tammy!

Holy Week for Sister Ellen

What a way to kick off our Holy week celebration!

44 (!) Benedictine nuns singing on the Ed Sullivan show! This same episode had the Stones singing Ruby Tuesday (and something else- I'd have to check). I guess they needed a little family oriented balance. This is actually an amazing chunk of 60s TV.

¡Kids! Download this as a Quicktime movie you can keep on your own computer...

Mrs. Miller Revisited

There are people in some circles of our lives who know not Mrs. Miller. For these colleauges and loved ones, a little introduction. For you old hat-sayers, there are a few snips from the above record further down

Kicking off with the top 40 hit (yes- we really did hear it regularly on the transistor radio during those WKNR Think Summer days)...

...The Renaissance of Smut

The 7 inch pictured above is a radio promo record. It has an open-end interview so that you, the DJ, could interview Mrs. Miller in your own studio. I wish this record was in better shape, it's one of those vexing bits o' vinyl that looks clean, but doesn't play as such. I've tried a number of things, if anyone out there has some expert (as in beyond the basics) technique to share with me, I'll clean it up and upload the rest. For now here's a few "play-the-record-now" snips...
