Description

"AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST MINISTRIES - The American Hope - 197? - Private Press - HARD TO FIND U.S. (Minnesota) ODDBALL XIAN CUSTOM FOLK ALBUM":  

COVER IS STILL IN THE SHRINK AND IS IN ALMOST PERFECT CONDITION. THE VINYL IS NEAR MINT. I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS ALBUM ANYWHERE ONLINE. VERY STRANGE CHRISTIAN ODDBALL. MUST HAVE FOR THE COLLECTOR OF HARD TO FIND JESUS MUSIC OR OBSCURE ALBUMS IN GENERAL. DON'T MISS YOUR OPPERTUNITY TO GRAB THIS SLAB OF VINYL... YOU MAY NOT HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE.

 

I COULDN'T FIND ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THIS ALBUM ANYWHERE ONLINE OR IN 'THE ARCHIVIST' BUT I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT KEN SCOTT WOULD DIG THIS ONE. INSANELY STRANGE PICTURE ON THE FRONT COVER DEPICTING PASTOR GEORGE ECHEVARRIA SHOOTING HEROINE AND HIS WIFE PATRICIA POPPING PILLS AND DRINKING ALCHOHOL. MAINLY COVER SONGS WITH TWO ORIGINALS. SONGS RANGE FROM THE USE OF A FULL BAND TO A SIMPLE VOCAL/BANJO NUMBER(THIS IS AN ORIGINAL AND IT HAS A REALLY WEIRD VIBE). THE MUSIC SOUNDS FAIRLY AMATURE BUT IT'S THE SPOKEN TESTIMONIES BETWEEN SONGS AND ECHEVARRIA'S CRAZY RANTING SERMON THAT TAKE THIS ALBUM TO THE NEXT LEVEL. APPARENTLY ALL OF THE PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THE PROJECT WERE DRUG ADDICTS AT SOME POINT AND HAVE NO PROBLEM TALKING ABOUT IT. PASTOR ECHAVARIA TAKES THE CAKE HAVING BEEN SEVERLEY ADDICTED TO HEROINE, IN AND OUT OF PRISON AND CONTEMPLATING SUICIDE BEFORE HAVING A CONVERSION EXPERIENCE. HIS TESTIMONY IS PRINTED IN SOMETIMES DISGUSTINGLY GRAPHIC DETAIL ON THE BACK COVER OF THE ALBUM. THIS IS A WEIRD ONE FOLKS AND PROVIDES AN INTERESTING EXAMPLE OF HOW THE JESUS MOVENT EMERGED FROM THE COUNTERCULTURE.
