Introductions:Welcome to The Ancient Star Song blog spot. There are a variety of genres (blues, British beat, folk, jazz, progressive, psychedelic, rock, etc...), from a variety of places around the world (Australia, Canada, Germany, the UK, the US, to name a few), recorded between the mid 60's and the early 80's. This time period was known as the Jesus Music Era. I will be posting several albums a week so check back often. There was a common theme of evangelism for Jesus Christ throughout this period. You may well hear some of the best music you've never heard before.
Archivist:Unless otherwise noted, all reviews are taken from Archivist (Vintage Vinyl Jesus Music, 1965-1980) by Ken Scott. To order the third edition of this valuable resource contact
Ken via e-mail. And for more detailed information about the book click
here. My special thanks to Ken for allowing me to use his reviews.
Support the artists:Please support the artists by buying any reissues that may become available. I will only post albums that are currently out of print and most likely will never be back in print. If you know of anything that I post that is available on CD or vinyl let me know and I will take it down. And if you are the copyright holder of a particular album and would like me to remove it, then please let me know. Thanks! Some Artist I may mention and provide a link to their available items.
Want List:
I am looking for fine christian music from the Jesus Music era which ran from the mid 1960's to about 1980. If you have some that I have not yet posted or that is on my want list and can provide me with the mp3 files I will be happy to post them for others to enjoy too. Please check with me before sending files as I may have the album but just have not gotten to it or may not be posting for other reasons. My email can be found under the "View my complete profile" link near the bottom of the left coloum under About Me. Maybe you have an album that needs to be heard.
I know I have a following in Spain. Yet I have not yet found any Jesus Music from Spain. Do any Spanish readers know of a group from Spain that would qualify for upbeat gospel or Jesus Music from about 1965 to 1980? Also France has yet to have an entry from this period. Any other countries that may have some great Jesus Music We would like to hear from you as well. Jesus Isn't just for Americans He is for all people. Maybe some great praise music from that time period.

or
End Of My Day
Thanks Again
Rik
You were correct. I have changed the post to reflect the music. Will post End of My day at another time.
I bought this LP some years ago for a king's ransome and while there were 4 or 5 OK songs on it, I was a bit miffed !! Reason being, that I'd had "End of my day" for years and I still think it is without peer in it's field, the Alwyn Wall band's "The prize" and Kyle & Stewart's "Yours Forever" being the only English LPs of that period that could even hope to top it ! {grimtraveller}
