    Shaded Pain - A Tribute to Michael Knott

    In this very special and emotional episode we talk to friends and fans of Michael Knott who recently shed his mortal coil and passed into eternity. Michael rich legacy of music with bands like The Lifesavers, Lifesavers Underground, Cush, Aunt Betty's, Idle Lovell and more have had a permanent impact on music fans around the world. He was loved, admired, scorned and ridiculed.  He wore his struggles on his sleeve and his love he waved like a banner.

We speak with friends like Michael Roe, Chris Brigandi, Gary Olson, Allan Aguirre, John Smeby, Todd Zeller, Josh Lory, Mike Stand and Chuck Cummings.  God Speed Michael Gerard Knott

    It's a Cruel, Cruel Logic

    On this very different and special episode of Legacy we speak with screenwriter, filmmaker and author, Brian Godawa about the need for authenticity and creativity in the world of Christian art. The conversation is wide ranging and, at times, difficult. We discuss art, evil, worldviews, culture and giants! What is gleamed from the discussion pertains to all art forms Christians create including novels, film and music.  www.Godawa.com

    The "Second Wave" of Jesus Music with John Smeby

    This edition of Legacy is a full length interview with John Smeby of Reality Rock as we discuss the "Second Wave" of Jesus Music, the rock, new wave and alternative music of Southern California (and beyond) in the 1980's. Fueled by bands like Undercover, Altar Boys, Lifesavers, Lifters, The 77's and more, this wave evangelized and broke even more barriers within the church accepting a whole new crop of fringe believers.

    Rock N Roll Preacher: Chuck Girard On The Jesus Revolution

    On this episode we are more than excited to spend time with a true Jesus Music pioneer and someone who actually was a part of the "Jesus Revolution." As a founding member of Love Song, Chuck Girard played a pivotal role in the birth and proliferation of what we fondly refer to as "Jesus Music."  But Chuck's ministry and musical expression has lasted longer than that as there is even new music in the offing. We talk music, ministry, sex, drugs and rock n roll with a true "Rock N Roll Preacher." Please share this episode! #ChuckGirard #JesusRevolution #JesusMusic
