No track listings, just one long rant that runs the entire length of the tape.

I was thrilled when Paul sent me this tape -- I've long been amazed by the charismatic Dr. Van Impe and his bizarre TV evangelism. I had no idea he'd done 8-tracks, although it makes perfect sense. This tape is one long cold-war "end of the world" sermon on how the Bible predicts that we're going to war with Russia, and  the end is NOW! Of course that was 30 years ago and now the Ruskies are now our good pals.  I actually listened to this entire tape, and it is fascinating how Dr. V extracts so much info out of the Good Book and translates it to the modern world events. Turns out he was all wrong, but what the heck.  Today Dr. Van Impe concentrates on web and TV rants, dealing with everything from UFOs to the "end times" which are still almost here I guess.

BONUS:

Dr. Van Impe ROCKS! Here is another tape, courtesy Mr. Evans, the amazing ACCORGAN! The Accorgan is an accordian with some combo organ parts added, making for quite a festive audio display, especially in the hands of Dr. Jack!
