Power of The Almighty Defenders

Is it a coincidence that I bought The Almighty Defenders album on Halloween and now it's haunting me? : :

The Almighty Defenders - Cone Of Light from The Pool Parties on Vimeo.

The Almighty Defenders strike me as a rockabilly gospel band. They dress in gospel choir robes on stage and have an eclectic Elvis, meets bar band, meets Motown sound. I discovered them while listening to XMU. Each time they played Cone of Light, I found myself looking down at the satellite receiver to catch the name of the artist and track. I did this enough times that it finally stuck. I came home, looked them up on iTunes and knew I would not be satisfied until I owned this entire album and could play it whenever and wherever I wanted. itunes_iconCheck out The Almightly Defenders on iTunes.

Rev. Ahman – Man’s Lord Is The Christ Within

Rev. Ahman was the guest minister at L.A. Third Church of Religious Science on June 22, 2008. I was able to secure a recording of his presentation so I can share it with you here on this Sunday morning, July 6, 2008. If you believe that words are powerful and if you can respect the skills of a great speaker, you might enjoy this presentation. Rev. Ahman has the ability to talk about life-changing, spiritually sound topics in a down-to-earth manner. Although this is a spiritual message, it's so moving, fluid and dramatic that it might remind you of listening to tunes by James Brown or Ray Charles or hearing a speech by Martin Luther King, Jr. You will feel empowered and enlightened after listening to these words. Click play, turn up your speakers and listen carefully...Do it once, do it twice, do it as many times as you want. It's all good.
