This is another tape sent in along with Timigen of unreleased music. I’m not sure if I should include these here, but one of the tracks here did make it onto Jeani Bond’s New Generation Tape Show back in the day. There were no track names here, so I came up with what I thought could be possible titles. Part of the track I called “Metaphysical” was played on New Generation. There are basically four types of tracks on here:

Spoken word poetry: 1 (with bongos), 2, 3, and 9
Singing/playing harmonica over another song playing in the background: 4, 5, and 12
Acapella cover songs (and possibly original songs): 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, and 14
Random stuff: 13, 16, and all of side 2

Some of the acapella songs may also be covers of songs that I have never heard of. The sermon might have been on the tape before it was taped over. The interview with Glenn Stanton is particularly disturbing, as he basically said he supports the bombing of abortion clinics, proving he is not truly “pro-life.” Scottie went on to record the Dethdoor tape, which gained wider distribution.

Missing Information: Actual song titles?
