I first read John Blanchard’s Pop Goes The Gospel (hereafter PGTG) at about the time I went to university as an impressionable and somewhat Pharisaical son of the manse.
Nearly a quarter of a century on I don’t think it did me that much good, and I regret not having invested more of my earlier years reading greater works. Then, a couple of years ago a friend hit me over the head (figuratively) with Dan Lucarini’s Why I Left The Contemporary Christian Music Movement (hereafter WILTCCMM).
