Jesus Music and friends



A couple of days ago I wrote about all the old Jesus Movement music records I found. Remembering music and friends from the Jesus Movement I mentioned the 77’s record Ping Pong Over the Abyss.

An evening later my husband and I sat down at the Tower cafĂ©, one of our favorite hang outs. After sitting down I looked over at the person sitting caddy-corner from me. Wouldn’t you know it was Mark Tootle, one of the original 77s musicians, and his wife Traci. He is now music Director at the Baptist Church down town.

I don’t think we stopped talking to take a breath. We covered the old days, the Jesus movement music, and yes, the book of Revelation, and what ever happened to Aaron Smith? Now I have his telephone number I will be calling. Picture from Penny Juncker's facebook photo

Anyway the conversation led me to more records on the internet. This is from Ping Pong Over the Abyss. "denomination blues"(original music by Ry Cooder)
