Stop the Demon Directed Damsel
Bob Harrington’s ‘Chaplain Of Bourbon Street’
“Ten Reasons Why Madalyn Murray O’Hair Must Be Stopped… ..and Ten Ways to Stop Her”
Chaplain Records #33
“May I share with you the experience that gave me the strength to take on this ‘demon directed damsel’. I was in my study on Bourbon Street, meditating, studying, and praying one afternoon about this situation. I had just gotten back from ten days of preaching across the country. For a moment, I reclined my chair and dozed for what seemed like a long while. (Let me quickly say I am not one who dreams in my sleep.) During this time, I vividly saw the little boy, David, pick up that little bag of stones and head out to destroy the giant that was destroying his land and his people. With that little stone and God guiding the flight of that stone, a nation and a people with victory once again became the nation and the people that God had intended. Upon waking, I heard these strong-positive words, “Bob, you are my David in this day. Your bag of stones, Bob is my word and your love for your God and your love for your country and it’s people. My spirit will protect you–just as I protected David, and I will guide you and your people to victory. It was there, at what was one of the closest moments to spend with the Son, and the Holy Ghost, that I said, ‘Lord, yes, I’ll be your David.’”
Out, Damn’d Spot!

“The Blood Has Never Lost Its Power”
Miracle Revival Recordings #167
“EVANGELIST A. A. ALLEN heard daily under the AQUA AND WHITE BIG TOP tent, the largest gospel tent in the world, is known to multitudes as ‘GOD’S MAN OF FAITH AND POWER.’
A network of powerful radio and TV stations carry a daily broadcast of gospel programs and a Sunday telecast to this entire continent and many parts of the world. These programs are televised and recorded while actually in progress under the AQUA AND WHITE GOSPEL BIG TOP TENT.
Likewise the long play albums are more than canned music and singing. They are actually Holy Ghost services as they transpired under the tent. The Spirit of the Living God can be felt in your own home as these services come to bless you on record.”

Personal Effects
“Bring Out the Jazz”
1985, Earring Records
When I found this I honestly thought it was going to be a recording of a high school jazz band. I have to admit being a bit disappointed to find out Personal Effects is actually a nerdy synth-pop group from Rochester, NY. Not sure what look they were going for on this cover. The mid-80′s were a weird, confused time…
In a band called Margaret Explosion
