"I love my children and I love my wife, You are the center of my life"

I have been neglecting my reading of late and would like to respond to
the gathering of readers who responded to my inquiries of 'Jesus music'.

There are many other 'kinds' of "Jesus" music. It all started in the 
sixties when the "Jesus" revolution started (supposedly). Many of the 
real great players found themselves into a new kind of lifestyle and 
wanted to start playing a different kind of music that reflected the
new life in them. Phil Keggy, once a Jimmy Hendrix backup guitarist,
has even put down some electrifying sounds, as previously noted in an
earlier article. Here are some others that I hope to encourage people
to listen to, not to change their lives, but to get some feedback:
