Tom Wolfe said the 70s was witness to the Third Great Awakening, as many Americans turned to religion on their quest for self-enlightenment or simply to find a way to make sense out of the social and political chaos. This religious revival was reflected in pop music of the era, although writing or singing songs about religion was still a bit risky. This episode looks at songs by artists such as George Harrison, The Staples Singers, and Kansas to try to better understand the intersection of religion and popular music of the 70s.
