Thread Name: Easter Charity tape
Subject: Easter Charity tape
Shameless self-promotion time, but on charity recordings I reckon anything's fair!

Following the Caleb's Cool Yule tape for Health Help International, our Easter tape will be out in a couple of weeks. This is similar, being a mix of stories and songs, with some striking items:

* The story of Malchus, by David Kossoff (who has given us permission to use it) - he was the guy who had his ear cut off in the garden, when Jesus was arrested. Brilliantly told by Derek West, who did Joseph's Letter on the last tape. * The Healing of Chandra Lekha. A true HHI story from India, written by one of our workers out there, and read by Jean Summers (who did all the female voices on Cool Yule). * He's Alive! A dramatic six-minute song by Don Francisco, telling of Peter's emotions after the crucifixion, coming to a climax as Jesus appears to him. * There Is a Green Hill Far Away - as you've never heard it before! * plus two hillbilly-style gospel numbers and... * one brand-new inspirational song of ours, of which we're extremely proud.

Thanks to all of you who supported us on the last one - this one is six pounds sterling including postage, please PM me if you'd like one.

Details of the charity are at www.skywriter.demon.co.uk

Thanks, everyone.
