Larry Norman - Right Here In America ~ Track 3
From the Album "Rough Street Love Letter" ~ (Solid Rock Records) ~ 1999
------------------------------------------------------
Solid Rock's re-release program continues to pick up steam as this package gathers together three of the rarest ever Larry Norman LPs (the original version of "Street Level", "Letter Of The Law" and "Labor Of Love") and adds in one partially released project (side one of 'Rough Mix 3' was put out as the 'Barking At The Ants' EP in the early '80s). The price might seem high for a double CD which is probably aimed at collectors rather than selective admirers but it still works out cheaper than buying the bootleg CDRs which prompted this release, and you get better sound quality, a 12 page booklet written by Larry, and bonus tracks. All in all there 42 tracks here and only two have appeared on CD before, some have never been released anywhere before. "Street Level" is vintage Norman. Side one features a poem and three songs from a solo concert in 1969, while the five other tracks are studio demos from 1970 including an impressive pop song "Sigrid Jane" cut by Larry and Ray Charles' band. "Rough Mix 3" works quite well too. This is a collection of recordings from 1978 to 1985 and features enjoyable live versions of "Why Can't You Be Good" and "A Note From Mr. God" alongside an early version of "The Tune", a cover of Bob Dylan's "Just Like A Woman", and a version of "More Than A Dream" which has Larry and his Young Lions cohorts sounding a bit like Adam And The Ants. Quite a mix! Some of the other material leans towards praise and worship. The other two albums concentrate mostly on Tom Howard covers with a few short original instrumental compositions thrown in. It's easy to see why they were never released properly and why they gathered bad reviews when they are placed alongside Norman's best work. That said, there are four or five of the songs and their performances from these two poorer albums riveting. The stripped down versions of "Where His Soul Touches Down" and "Watch The Master Make It Right" will almost certainly hit the mark with fans of Norman's own ballads like "The Outlaw" and "I Hope I'll See You In Heaven". The two bonus tracks are absolute gems. The short demo of "Love On Haight Street" from the late '60s and the studio recording of "A Woman Not A Maid" from the unreleased 'Rough Mix 2' album, it's probably fair to say that over these two CDs you can find Larry close to his best and worst, but if you are a big fan or a collector you'll probably enjoy the collection.

This is a song that SHOULD convict the believers in this country, in 2023.
The Believers shouldn't be convicted, they should already be doing these things. The Church should be convicted, the ones who do nothing.
Jesus says, " lf you're ashamed of me before men, l will be ashamed of you before the Angels & my Father in Heaven."
Good song.

And in 2024. Just redempt before the ellection. Don't choose for Barabas Trump, but vote to bring people to Christ
@jackvandenburg
And who would that vote be for? Biden?
A puppy. An A.I.? GOD raises up kings & pulls them down. Pray for the Jewish people. Want a triple blessing? Anyone?
Gen.12:3 says a blessing for blessing Abe's children.
Matt. 6:4, 'Give & you get blessed but give to a Jewish ministry & Gen.12:3 kicks in.
Matt.6:6 'When you prsy...' you get rewarded so add Gen.12:3 & pray for the Jews & get rewarded. So of you are praying & giving to help the Jews,
Gen.12:3
Matt.6:4
Matt.6:6
equals 3 blessing in one
plus the blessing for giving to the poor, written throughout the whole Bible.
Straight up.
"I'm not talkin Religion, I'm talkin bout JESUS" "Put all your plans on the shelf" Lets stop marching for peace and start marching for Jesus and Peace will take care of itself". It's all happening RIGHT NOW IN AMERICA!! It's HAPPENING TO US!!
The 'church' tried to eat him alive, his 'friends' betrayed him...but the songs, man. I dare you young christians to write and sing your heart and conviction. We may be cellmates. Lol
had to go to a farm fields,on blankets and lawn chairs back in 70s.....churches kicked him and others out of their tax 501c3's keith green was murdered ,, proof CIA and Jesuit militia killed him others and greens baby //Ies?? in small plane brick and mortar didnt want the threta keith green also qwwas a threat to Rome///
Larrys words are valid since Covid more so and he seems like a prophet singer now inspite all his criticism, He loved his Lord and Saviour.
The more is listen Larry Norman's songs I realise he was a truly sincere person with a prophesying view
Larry wrote this so long ago, and it has happened and is happening to so many, so often, but it's much worse than when Larry sang about it, and it will get worse according to the Scriptures. God have mercy on all who are lost. Open the eyes of their hearts, Lord. Let them see You. Sunday, June 10, 2018
Always remember to love the art and not the artist...I spent hours with him after each of the 10 concerts i went to. Talked about life an song writing. Great guy. I miss him. 😁
Another prophetic truth from Larry.
i was introduced to Larry Norman by our youth leader ad church, bought his albums, listened to his music all through high school, heard him in concert (with Randy Stonehill). Even saw him in concert again in San Jose in 1990. Very familiar with "The Great American Novel" and "Readers' Digest". But i just heard *this* song for the first time a couple of years ago. (Oh well -- at least he wasn't talking to Birch! ;) )
Like King's "Letter from Birmingham Jail" -- Larry addressed this song directly to the Church. "Let's stop marching for peace and start marching for Jesus, and peace will take care of itself."
This truly is one of Larry's most compelling songs. The message is chilling.
and it's here in the west now, and people don't even see it
I saw him in concert about 6 times in the 80s and 90s when I was a Christian and one last time in 2001 as an agnostic/atheist. He was an exceptional performer, very intelligent, not afraid to speak the truth as he saw it regardless of the consequences.
I can easily set aside his professional and personal failures, especially as they did not affect me personally - and in any case, most stones are best left un-thrown. He remains one of the only influences left in my life that I could still call spiritual. He was too Christian for the contemporary scene (being anti-abortion, and singing about Jesus and the rapture) but not religious enough for the Christian scene (worldly themes, equivocal lyrics, no fan of organised religion, rumours even then) and maybe that was one reason I liked him so much - not his views which i disagreed with frequently, but just that he was an outsider, a complicated, but clever antagonist - warning us of our jeopardy. The hit job video done on him just made me more fascinated by him. Was he really a narcissist? Possibly. But he was part performer and part evangelist and far better at both than his peers - and in any case he is no longer here to defend himself. His concerts and tapes were pretty cheap and the only interval collection i ever experienced was in the mid 90s when he was in and out of hospital. He clearly had significant heart disease and it took him at 60 - he was hardly faking it. Was I ripped off? No I don’t think so. I lost far more money and time to churches and respectable religious endeavours. For me, seeing him in concert was like standing before a great work of art or a great landscape, he made me think about the spiritual realm (and the world’s potential end) in a way I almost never got from church or organised religion. He was good with a band, but always best with his Spanish guitar, and his stories, arpeggio, falsetto, humour, piercing stare, prophecy, and artistry remains with me. 20 years on from the last time I saw him there are just these YT videos, for which I am grateful. Someone should make a proper film about him, it can say what it likes about his private life or his motives, as long as it captures what his concerts were actually like. He was one of the greats, dismissed, rejected, condemned and now at risk of being forgotten, but truly special, perplexing and profound. I met him only once when he signed something for me, he was very sweet and polite. I hope he found peace.
Larry would say...I hope I see you in Heaven..
Believe again bro.
I have been binge listening to Larry Norman all night and man, this guy was really onto something. Finally real music that's also relatable
When this song came out I the 70’s it seemed so unbelievable. Now 45 plus years later it has become realistic.
I agree completely, i looked for this on youtube just in the chance that I might find it wanted to play it for my wife as we are noticing the 'signs of the times' and that our freedoms may not be taken for granted! Hostility toward christianity grows, and the enemy keeps advancing! Thanks for posting it! I have it on vinyl with no way to play it
Six years since your comment brother, it's truer now

Thank you so much for putting Larry Norman's music on the net. I had never heard of him but found a reference to him in a book I am reading, "Jesus Revolution." I searched for his music and found all that Greg has put on. I have been listening to every song I can find since Sunday (off & on). Yes, come Lord Jesus.
Yes these modern day prophets are simply amazing and don't even know who they are ask Bob Marley there's so many modern day prophets AMEN
Prophetic to say the least
Truly prophetic. As are many of his songs
Proper man of God.
Right on, Larry! thanks for your words--inspiring and powerful warning.
❤❤❤MuchLove!!!
This song was out in the early 70’s so so true to the way the the world is today in 2023.
Prophetic, Larry. RIGHT HERE!
wow! what a song
Максим Кравець these things are easier to do when the church is in good health
A song of truth.
Good song.
Prophetic!
Que música linda! Fala exatamente o que penso.
Happening here in the UK 2024.
Its happening!
Awesome song.
It’s happening now
The preachers have given up on preaching, so the prophesying is being done by artists 1 Chronicles 25:1 God's love is so great that he will get the word through..even by asses like us! Numbers 23: 28-30
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
Matthew 18:20
Jesus said ''When you are persecuted for my name sake ...... not IF you are persecuted but WHEN .
God Bless You
Beautiful song
Blessed
Great job on the video!
Fast forward to 2017... it is happening.
It started long, long before 2017. I saw everything start to change in 1960. You can read about it on the web, I'm sure. Please take the time to do so. Find out why so many children grow up without a father in the house (or a father figure in their lives). "Free Love." Yeah, that's turned out really well. I had a Home Health Aide who had eight (8) children with eight differenet dads (somewhere), & "mom" was no mother to them. She only wanted the extra money the government gives for each child you have, and she was getting over $1,000.month for food (beside a welfare check), only had to work 20 hours a week, & the government paid for child care (and clothing, formula, etc.).
The elderly and disabled live in subsidized housing, and the gov takes 1/3 of whatever they get from SSI or Social Security, and they get $15.00/month for food. Try living on that! They work all their lives, and now they are old, and the SS is based on what they made in the 50's, 60's, etc., so they live on under $10,000/year BEFORE their rent is taken out. Shameful!
2017 --- you hadn't seen anything yet!!
right here in canada
My experience is that if you are not a evangelical Christian and a republican, which I am not, many will declare you something less than Christian. When one mixes their religion with politics then your politics becomes your religion. That is the threat to Christianity, at least where I live.
John Craft: Why would a born again Christian be a Democrat today? Did you really want an admitted Communist (Hillary) in the White House? Did you know she practices Yoga, which is an ancient practice from Egypt rooted in the occult? Do the research. Please? June 12, 2018
Larry was not part of the Jerry Falwell revolution that brought evangelicals into the Repubs. He was pretty much against it. He always sang about not only Jesus but racial injustice, the poor, the institutionalized church being out of touch, the environment etc before it was cool to do so.
@@arniet5257 Unfortunately, society has worsened since Larry's ministry days...and even his death a decade ago.
Evangelicals are not Christians and they are pandered to the same way that blacks, jews and gays are pandered to,by both parties.
Remember when Frank Zappa said cryptically..... "It Can't Happen Here...!" Well, my Brothers and Sisters.... it's happening right here and right now here in America...... Let's see what will shake out following this most recent Eclipse...... as it passes right over several cites called "Ninevah...." and as Jesus prophesied.... now it is as it was in the days of Jonah....... for sure....!! Fasten your seatbelts.... the wild ride has surely begun.....!! Ted Schempp, Nashville
That’s also happen in Brazil 😢
wow
Das gibts leider auch in der Schweiz 🇨🇭😥
You got to turn it up to see the kingdom of God and the Truth and Jesus is the Truth. That's the key put it in the lock turn the key like any key and turn it upside down and the lock comes loose and open is the door to the kingdom of God turn quite around a gift of repentance.
Thank you Jesus for forgiven this angel that lost his way
In thr UK you can now be arrested for praying silently, on your own, in the open air
It's over.
It's happening now, I'm afraid.
If Christ returned on a Sunday between 11 and noon the churches would not know.
And right now, churches are closed, or only open if there are less than 15 people, and those church people are just fine with that.
Jesus isn't in the churches, you're not going to find him anywhere in the churches. You have to find Jesus in you.
We were warned
Shock the Flock !

Welcome to Biden's America!
It's getting worse by the year,,,
Greg, unknowingly, I'm sure, you've used a couple Satanic symbols when doing Larry's songs on videos, such as the "all seeing eye of horus," which you did by showing a half-face of a girl with a tear from her eye. Please research the truth about Freemasons for a start. Listen to Walter Martin debate a Freemason to start, and then get deeper into it, and learn about the symbols, the degrees and what their end goal is. (Also, why you have to be a Freemason before you can be a Shriner.) They're not the only secret society, but it's a good start, as many, many pastors today are unaware (and others are Freemasons and KNOW what they are doing). Thank you for taking time to read this.
