Rock Doc Fallen Angel
If you could combine the on-stage magnetism of Mick Jagger, the lyrical brilliance of Bob Dylan and the personal fragility of Brian Wilson, you would only have begun to scratch of the surface of Larry Norman. Fallen Angel: The Outlaw Larry Norman recounts the rise of the father of Christian rock music as the “rock 'n' roll Billy Graham” of the 1970s through to the height of success as the visionary behind Solid Rock Records before a personal meltdown and subsequent fall from grace exiled him to the margins of the Christian subculture he helped create.
