The End: A Christmas Concert

Well, as the saying goes... All good things must come to an end. (Or, at least, it's something like that...) This is the final episode of basicmm radio. Thanks for joining us on this experimental journey! It's been really fun! I've learned a lot about podcasting for sure, and just had a ton of fun digging through the basic archives. I hope you have enjoyed it too! :-) This final episode is larger than most because I figured we should go out with a bang! So you get a full HOUR-LONG EPISODE! We re...

Interview with The Original basic Band

We have a SPECIAL EDITION of basicmm radio for you today! This past week we caught up with three of the original other four members of basic (including Greg's sister, Tara - the original "s" in basic!) It's a pretty entertaining conversation about where everyone is these days, and remembering some funny moments in our time together as the original basic band! We also included two songs from a video we found taken during a youth rally at the Clarence Church of Christ in April 1996! The lyrics and...

Peace

We are playing at Impact Theater tonight, so I found a tape from a previous concert and thought I'd share a little taste of Impact with you guys who might not be able to make the show. :-) The song we chose to highlight this week is one of our more popular songs off of the album Lord, Hear My Voice . Peace is a very simple song taken from the words of Paul in Philippians 4:6-7. This version was recorded at Impact Theater in November of 2003. The audio quality is not the best, but it is a live ve...

The Mountain To The Sea

This week's edition of basicmm radio features a conversation with the inspiration behind one of the songs on our Come As You Are CD, The Mountain To The Sea . Chris Irwin is a friend who has a funny story about this particular song. :-) It's a different sort of show, hope you enjoy! The song was recorded at a coffee house in Victor, NY in 2003. The lyrics are included below, and you can click the iTunes button below to purchase the individual track directly from iTunes. Or, you can grab the whol...

The Solid Rock

This is a busy, busy time for us here in basicland. We have a busy month of special days (birthdays and anniversaries) and we have been doing more gigs than normal, and we are going on vacation next week... so, lots to do. For that reason, this show is shorter than usual, and strangely, the song is quite applicable to our current whirlwind of life! We recorded the old hymn, The Solid Rock this past February in Harrisburg, PA at the PCTC (the Pennsylvania Christian Teen Convention). Actually was ...

Faith To Be My Eyes

It's not always easy to really trust God, and not worry about the things we see around us. In our lives, finances have often been so tight that they truly test our faith in God to provide. That has been the case over the last months, and was definitely true when I wrote the song, Faith To Be My Eyes . The song was recorded through a little 4-channel 80-watt power amp to a cassette deck two years ago on Nov 21, 2003. So, the audio quality is not great. The song is a great reminder for me to trust...

Unified

A home recording of a song written for the Victor Unity Fest back in 2001 is featured on this edition of basicmm radio . The song was a request by our friend John Oliphant, and was first performed at the Unity Fest in January 2002. The lyrics of the song are below. Now, for those of you who actually VISIT the podcast page... :-) you get an inside scoop not posted elsewhere... We are in the preliminary stages of our next studio album! This song will be included on that CD, along with up to 14 or ...

Local Artist Showcase

Get to know basic on this edition of basicmm radio ! A few years ago now, we did an interview on a show called "Local Artist Showcase" on the Family Life Network (a group of radio stations across NY and PA). I came across the CD recently, and am posting the show in its entirety here with their permission. The interview is done by Bruce Barrows, and includes our songs The One and My Visible See-Through Friend from our Come As You Are CD. Also, they featured another artist Wendy Gammon from Livoni...

1998

The selections for this edition of basicmm radio come from a lost recording recently rediscovered in the Campbell house from the year 2003. We recorded a live show at Chesapeake Coffee Company in Victor, NY (a now-defunct coffee house) with a gathering of friends that made for a fun night. (listen for some great back-up vocals on Called Out Ones!) The interesting thing about the songs chosen is that they are the only two songs that I wrote in 1998. That was quite a break from the norm at that ti...

The Grace Of God

The song for this edition of basicmm radio is one that has only been recorded once, for a now extinct demo CD recorded way back in 1995! (View the cover art below... it's amazing.) :-) I made an error on the podcast. I said that the song was written in 1995. It was actually written in 1994! Crazy. That's a long time ago. The words are still true. The song is still cool. Mostly. :-) So, here are the lyrics, and the album art. I hope you enjoy the song. (click the title above to listen if you are ...

10th Anniversary - July 23, 1995

Hi everyone! Welcome to the second edition of the basicmm radio podcast! Last week we were celebrating an anniversary of sorts, and so we thought it would be good to continue in that since 10 years ago this week (can you believe it!?!) was the first official public concert for the group known as "basic" (or Brother and Sister in Christ, then). So, buckle your seat belts and hang on for a wild ride down nostalgia lane! :-) The songs included here are: :: The Road Ahead - Another Road Trip (1996) ...

One

Welcome to the first official edition of basicmm radio ! We had a couple warm-up versions, and made sure everything was working in the iTunes Music Store and now, we're ready to go! The song this week is called "One" and was initially written for our wedding, and then first performed for some friends at their wedding. The story is included in the track this week. That will be the general idea of this podcast. Story, background, song. Simple! We'll include the lyrics for each song as well. Enjoy!...
