New Phil Keaggy Tour - 30 Years Since "The Master and the Musician"

Back in the 90’s when I was a college kid I had the experience of seeing Phil Keaggy perform in concert at my college. The concert was sometime in the winter months, which for Ohio could have been any of about 9 months. However, the impact of the time of year plays into what […]

The song featured is “Ten Thousand Angels” and was originally written by singer/songwriter Sandra McCracken. […]
