It sounds like a GREAT CD {though I can't get the actual interview and sound clip to work}.
I particularly love the song "Jesus Is on The Mainline."
I remember hearing this song when I was a child. I didn't know then that they were talking about a telephone line. I thought Jesus was walking on the main railroad line...
