Larry
(Preview)
I have listened to Larry's music all my life. Being almost 50 now I go back to his first album and have followed his carrer and life. I was glad to have met him in person and couldn't believe how long he talked with me. My sister and I used to pursue the music business and had tried out for Word records back in t...

How Larry touched my life
(Preview)
Larry's "In Another Land" was my first Christian rock album as a teenager. With all the good rock'n roll that was on the radio then, I wondered if there'd ever be a Christian that could sing about Jesus with the same kind of beat. The Christian radio of that time had music that just put me to sle...

The music paved the way.....
(Preview)
When I finally surrendered and began walking with the Lord, Larry's music showed me just how approachable the Father is. He showed me how easy it is to relate to Jesus, and I am forever grateful. Changed my life. See you soon Larry, and God Bless those you left behind.

Larry Norman concert 1979
(Preview)
Some friends and I had the pleasure of seeing Larry perform in Florence, South Carolina in the spring of 1979 at a place called The Rock. Only about 70 people could fit in that small building owned by a church there and we were among the fortunate few to have reserved our place. We sat right under him while...

I would so like to be at tomorrow's ceremony, but being so far away - in England - I know it will be impossible. I feel that I owe Larry so much for what he gave to humanity in his 60 years. He was the older brother that I always wanted to have, and his music and ministery helped me through so many problems throu...

To Larry's Family and Friends
(Preview)
My heart goes out to the family and friends of Larry Norman. I've been out-of-whack all week long, and feel like I've been in some type of time-warp. Caught myself crying a couple of times, and surprised by how ferociously the tears spilled out. Can't explain it...just that Larry really ingrain...

Augora High School in 1983
(Preview)
I'd listened to Larry for years before I had the opportunity to see him at Augora High School in 1983 as he was raising money for a church that my friend Steve H. was attending in Malibu Canyon. I was mostly touched by Larry's pastors heart and the natural way he went about sharing with us. Music was just a v...

How influencing Larry was to me and others, with his humor and pitchy thoughts. You'll even had to read the tiny letters in his "thank you"'s. I'm thankfull for having people like Larry in this world. And I'm thankful that in a way God cured him from his heart. I believe Larry had a wonderfull...

Larry's Infuence

I came to Jesus in 1976 I'm also 60. When in my early walk I went seeking for something in Christianity I could relate to, as I'd come from heavy drug abuse and Rock N' Roll. When I discovered Larry's music I found something I could relate to. I meet Larry at Icthus and Cornerstone Festivals, and my daugh...

A heart to the lost

It's hard to say the impact on my heart when I heard the one song he sang, 'I wish we'd all been ready". The horror in just thinking about it. Those who reject Christ, who I've grown up with will be left behind in this place when the Holy Spirit is withdrawn. This song really pointed my life and made m...

I was moved to read Larry's last words to the public. I am grateful that Jesus used Larry to challenge my life and so many others. The song I wish we'd all been ready still hits me between the eyes every time I hear it. We all have an appointment with the Lord. Be Ready. God bless the Norman family.

I was tricked by a friend to attend a Rock concert at ASU in Tempe, Arizona in 1973. The main performer was Larry. As I was listening to his music and lyrics I was awe struck at the messages and the convictions within his songs. After his last song, he spoke a few words and a minster then took the stage and ta...
