Photo* 00phy :%$tm TQwri:Y<*cikInvtit0 Hobbles: Art, Music Golf Campus Ministries Snow-White Reflections By Phil Woody The recent blizzard in Cullowhee caused me to reflect on the snow as it lay over the beautiful terrain around us. So I thought It appropriate for someone to write a column on snow on It. Snow. Bliss to one and bane to another. You would be hard-pressed to find many who would not think that a fresh, newly-fallen snowfall Is not a gorgeous sight. The pine trees are laden white, no people tracks, or running brown water to ruin the majestic appearance. It is indeed a winter wonderland. On go the boots, the snowsuits; out come the sleds, the tubes, the skis. We frolic and laugh in the white stuff. Yes, It Is bliss. I am, obviously .reminded of the way Scripture uses the word snow. We find it in Psalm 51:7 where David says "Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow." Then we see in Isaiah 1:18 where God Himself declares "let us reason together, though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow." Bliss. There is no more marvelous sensation in life than to know the washing and cleansing of God which removes sin. Guilt. Shame. Embarrassment. David knew very well what It was like to feel worthless and unable to dump his heavy load. He also knew where he had to go to receive the bath of his life. Our sins are as scarlet but with one washing In the blood of Jesus Christ we are as white as snow. Not yet perfect, but forgiven. 1 John 1:9 tells us that "if we confess our sins. He (God) Is faithful and righteous to forgive our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." That, friends, is bliss. But there Is another aspect of snow which Is bane to many, myself included. Snowplow drivers sometimes work all night In freezing temperatures. Cars slide sideways and ending up in ditches. People get stranded, hurt, and even killed. Peter, in his second letter, writes eloquently and forcefully about the person who, after being "bathed" In God's forgiveness, turns away and Is once again entangled by the defilements of the world. He says that such a person is like a pig, which after washing, returns to wallowing In mire. Nothing Is more sad than the person once white as snow who becomes brown muddy water, who gets stranded In a ditch. Such are some of you. You have known the forgiveness of God. You've known the majesty of walking with the Lord Jesus. But it seems you've lost your way and now you seem stranded, hurt, dirty. You are scarlet and you are calling out for help. Come back to the Lord Jesus. Let Him nurse yourwounds. LetHimtakeyoufromtheditch. Let Him once again wash you whiter than snow. Feel the warmth of His mighty love.

That's always been the best way for us." "Aerosmith's best stuff." Tyler agrees, "had always been done on the second take." With Bruce Fairbairn (Bon Jovl, Loverboy, Rock & Hyde) at the producing helm at a studio In Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, the entire recording atmosphere was notably different for an Aerosmith album. "Most producers have some kind of damage from the 70's" suggests Perry. "But Bruce has all his mental faculties. The gene pool up In Canada must be real strong. Musically, they're In their own little whirlpool up there and nave a lot of very talented people. We got a horn section there and even a calypso steel drum player. But it was weird. I mean, we had to clean up after ourselves. Our cigarette butts and sandwiches were still there the next day." Musically, Aerosmith finally felt free to create its unique brand of rock 'n' roll again. "Bruce let a lot fly onto the tape." continues Perry. "Before, we had stopped trying to do new things. We used to have the attitude that If It sounds good, let's do it. But then people were saying, 'Oh no, let's not.' Bruce said, 'Okay, let's try It." "I had heard unbecoming stories about Aerosmith's earlier days." Fairbairn concedes, "but I couldn't have asked for a nicer bunch of guys. They worked hard and were creative. Because they' re now straight, they were there 100 percent. They've done a lot of Important music and style and this record had to be an extension of that, but then I also needed to treat the band at face value and not have the legend on my shoulder. I treated them as musicians and. historically, they've been successful when they've experimented and stepped out a little bit." Curiously, this band which received scant critical praise during the period when It was unquestionably the top American hard rock band. Is now being acknowledged as having made an Important contribution to modern pop music. Surely ahead of Its time, nearly every so-called heavy metal band begins Its list of Influences by citing Aerosmith. But, says the band, calling Aerosmith heavy metal is off-target. "The reality is that our music came out of a melting pot," Tyler suggests. "They thought we were heavy metal but we weren't." "Just because we played loud," adds Perry, "and in big arenas, they missed the point. What bothered us then too Is that they never said we were real muslclars, that it's an art to make good records." For Hamilton, Permanent Vacation is a turning point for Aerosmith. "What's important is for the band to be recognized for how able we are musically inthe form we play. I came away from the studio doing Perrranent Vacation feeling like a musician, that we really acccmpllshed something on this album." The feeling Aerosmith is of a band assured and confident of Itself. Kelly Bradley welcomes you to Harolds Galaxy! •342 West Main Street. Sytva, North Carolina.
