Son Of The Blob   (Video Gems 1972)

This is a B movie that includes the debut film appearances by both Larry Norman and Randy Stonehill.  The movie is billed as a “comedy/shocker.”  The Blob returns--more outrageous than ever in this 1972 sequel to the popular sci-fi classic!  Plenty of familiar faces, including Larry Hagman (JR in the Dallas series who also directed), Burgess Meredith, Dick Van Patten, Robert Walker and Shelly Berman … and Larry Norman (as guitarist) and Randy Stonehill (as the boyfriend to a Blob girl victim!).

Greenbelt Live!  (Grenville Films 1979)

A brilliant film capturing the atmosphere and excitement of the 1979 Greenbelt Festival at Odell Castle, England. 20,000 people turned up to Europe’s foremost event of Contemporary Gospel Music advertised as “a festival to the glory of God”.

This is a real collector’s piece featuring Larry Norman, Randy Stonehill, Cliff Richard, After the Fire, Bryn Haworth, Garth Hewitt ... and many more.

It was Larry's first visit to Greenbelt and “mainstage was mesmerised with his strange yet wonderful performance.  Larry's appearance was one of the highlights of the weekend”. 

On video Larry sings the 1981 Something New Under The Son track “Let the Tape keep Rolling” with the Randy Stonehill band (consisiting of Tom Howard and Daniel Amos members) providing the backing. Randy sings an excellent version of “Good News.”  Sir Cliff Richard pays compliments to Larry's music.  Cliff’s single “We Don’t Talk Anymore” was No1 in the UK charts over the festive August Bank Holiday weekend.

Without Introduction (Street Level Videos 1996)

This video captures a very emotional and inspirational experience. The audience was deeply moved by what Larry was saying on stage and had no idea about the conspiratorial drama going on backstage before his appearance. Only upon leaving the stage did the master of ceremonies suddenly appear, mumbling to the audience in an attempt to disguise the turmoil. In the months leading up to the festival there had been untrue rumours going around about Larry. The same group of ex-associates that were instrumental in the CCM article which said that Larry had become a black cloud (had turned away from his friends, family and church) were apparently behind these rumours and lies. The video inadvertently reveals who has been behind these lies.

Creation Festival  (Creation/Sparrow Videos 2000)

The video appears to be from the Creation East 1999 festival. It was filmed at Agape Farm, Mt. Union, Pennsylvania. Larry appears without a band. Each of the songs is interspersed with various scenes from the festival including setup, baptisms, and preaching.

“I watch a lot of documentaries. This is a great concert video. It's well filmed and crisply edited. That means it doesn't break down and get boring at any time. It has an internal story line that works whether you know every band or not. The sound is great and every band agreed to be in it AFTER seeing how good their part was. This is an amazing video. It works as a documentary that even the secular mind will appreciate. This is definitely a film that your friends will like to see. So don't be afraid to show it to even the most critical of secular friends."  Larry Norman (from the Creationfest.com website)

Face To Face DVD (Solid Rock Videos 2005)

Directed and edited by Larry, this is both a funny and serious collection of scripted and unscripted segments of Larry's overall artistry. It has been said that no artist has been as confrontive on so many levels as Larry has, but he has also perhaps allowed himself to be the most vulnerable of artists, too. His close relationship and openness to the public has been unusual and surprising. (What other artist has ever thrown a backyard party and acted as an emcee to his guests' very first public appearances as performers?)

This DVD is a look inside the complexities of a unique artist and takes us from a young performer, standing alone in a television studio and singing with his simple Mexican guitar to a young lion prowling the stage with his band mates in Germany, Australia and England. It ends with a quiet performance laced with both laughter and tears. (Oliver North, Amy Grant and many other performers attended this performance.)
