Stories and Songs: Live in Concert (1978)

Songs and Stories: Live in Concert is a live album by Christian singer - songwriter

Scott Wesley Brown. It was self released in May 1978 on the Seven Locks

Associates label. Brown was still signed to Sparrow Records when this live album was released and Sparrow, under its founder Billy Ray Heard, even helped Brown assisting in the final production. It was produced by Brown and Tom Willett.

Stories and Songs was recorded at Christ Church in Washington, D.C. and features the group GLAD as Brown's backing band. Performing songs like "I'm Not Religious, I Just Love the Lord," "Harrison" and "The Lord's Prayer," Brown also

interspersed with personal monologue, capturing the raw enthusiasm of his nascent career in the Jesus Music movement. Stories and Songs is somewhat of a rare collector's item and hard to find, due to a limited number of copies that were made and sold at the time. A YouTube link to listen to the album is posted below this article.
