#110: CONCRETE JESUS

, ,

An orphan child from Cincinnati loved the scriptures and lived a live of gold-mine adventure in the Almost-Old West before winding up in a bomber-plane factory in Los Angeles, creating death-delivery systems for the permanent Cold War. Anxious over this atomic nightmare, yet optimistic enough to think humanity could survive it, Frank Antone Martin built an enormous concrete Jesus in his Inglewood driveway.

Such is the tale. Tune in to hear it all, the whole sordid thing. It’s Episode #110, soundscapes by RedBlueBlackSilver, snow on the western mountaintops.

Listen on the FM radio, from Amboy to Zzyzx (Fridays at 10 p.m. on Z 107.7 FM), or streaming from Z1077FM.com or streaming via Tune In or get the free podcast.
