The entire Gainesville music scene was built around songs: Top Forty songs on the radio, songs on albums, original songs performed on stage by bands and other musical ensembles. The late sixties was a golden age of rock and pop music and the rise of the rock band as a musical entity. As the counterculture marched for equal rights and against the war in Vietnam, a sonic revolution was occurring in the recording studio and on the concert stage. New sounds were being created through multitrack recording techniques, and record producers such as Phil Spector and George Martin became integral parts of the creative process. Musicians expanded their sonic palette by experimenting with the sounds of sitar, and through sound-modifying electronic ef- fects such as the wah-wah pedal, fuzz tone, and the Echoplex tape-de- lay unit, as well as a variety of new electronic keyboard instruments and synthesizers. The sound of every musical instrument contributed toward the overall sound of a performance or recording, and bands were begin- ning to expand beyond the core of drums, bass, and a couple guitars.

  • Trinity Hi-Lites
    Trinity Hi-Lites Trinity is about to enter “summer mode”. We adjourn our usual 9:00 a.m. Sunday school classes for children but the adult Bible study in the lounge and the social room continue with their 9:00 a.m. meeting time. Worship time remains 10:15 a.m. year-round. Most committees take a break from meeting and many families in our congregation will take their family vacations. Some folks will not venture very far from home this year while others will drive longer distances to take the trip to see relatives or to take the annual beach vacation. In general, the pace of living slows down from the usual sprint to a brisk walk. I hope you find refreshment and re-creation this summer. I hope you take the time to enjoy the weather, to relish the joy of time with loved ones, and to read that list of books you put off for too long. I also hope that, with much of the clutter of “busyness” gone, we all will become more conscious of God’s presence and blessing in our daily lives. Take more time than usual for prayer. Read that devotional literature you set aside for later. Spend time with the Psalms and pray them daily. Begin your intentional reading of one of the gospels. Sabbath is a Jewish tradition Christianity inherited but contemporary culture does not integrate into our life-style. Sabbath was the practice of putting all else aside for a while each week to focus solely on our relationship with God and the gifts God bestows upon us.
