For those who may not remember Keith (although, I can't imagine anyone who experienced a spiritual growth spurt through his ministry while he was with us, not remembering him), or are too young to have known Keith, he was an amazing contemporary musician (piano) and sold-out Christian who died at 28 years of age in 1982 in a plane crash, along with two of his then three small children, Josiah and Bethany, in Lindale, Texas. His wife Melody was pregnant with their forth child when Keith died.
Any music of his you may get will only benefit you. It has been said of his songs that the lyrics are actually sermons put to music. If you want your heart stirred to love God more and leave all the junk behind, Keith's songs will do it.
The full catalog of Keith's musical legacy is available on *The Ministry Years,* a two-volume CD set: Vol. 1 covers 1977-1979 and Vol. 2 covers 1980-1982. Each volume is a two-disc set, making a total of 72 songs. Both volumes are available on his Web site for $29.95 (for all four CDs/72 songs). That's only $0.41 per song, even iTunes can't compare to that! Plus, these are enhanced CDs. They include Keith Green's biography, *No Compromise,* written by his widow, Melody Green. In effect, this book is free...making a marvelous package.
So do something good for your soul for a change...get some Keith Green music and read his biography. You'll be glad you did.

Description of The Prodigal Son
Keith Green's widow, Melody, compiled this album a year after her husband's death in an airplane crash in 1982. The highlight of the record is unquestionably the twelve-minute rock symphony, "The Prodigal Son Suite." Green wrote this piece with the hope of completing a full-length rock opera based on Biblical stories. A virtuoso on piano even in his early 20s, Green and his orchestra tell much of the story with cinematically sweeping instrumental movements. When he does sing, Green plays the role of the prodigal son with an actor's passion (it's not surprising that the young Green was hired to write a film score -- or that he quit the project because the movie's content offended him). The rest of the album is a set of relatively uninventive MOR ballads, with the exception of a couple of Elton John-esque key-slamming rock numbers, 1.
