The Roar of Love

The Roar Of Love is a 1980 concept album by Christian band 2nd Chapter of Acts that tells the story of the first book in the Chronicles of Nárnia series by C. S. Lewis.

According to band member Matthew Ward, all the vocals were cut in a bedroom of the house the trio lived in at the time. They converted their garage into a mixing room, knocked a hole in the bedroom wall and ran a microphone cord into it. The songs have a heavy use of synyhesizers, which were monophonic at the time.

It was reissued on the Live Oak label.
