[@norrisnorris1008]

I was introduced to this by a friend more than 40 years ago and every day since it gets fresher and more insperationally relevant each day of man's chaotic & nebulous survival.

I was 15 when I was introduced to The Prophet. It inspired me to become a poet

[@robertbennie7889]

One of my bibles. Everytime I read it, I learn more about myself and by extension, all humankind.

[@PRODUCEDBYKEV]

My stepdad introduced me to the book a year earlier. I saw it while buying Quincy Jones' & The Isleys latest, so I got it for him. I played it more than he did.

This lyrical reading creates a pleasurable, if sometimes overly orchestrated, layer of background to words that deserve more than a dry intonation. It is best for those who are already familiar with the passages.

I read this in 5th grade

[@iyogi2]

Indeed the music is too much

[@joannemacvittie2748]

His words are literally, "love in action!!!" ❤ 🥰

[@salvatorebarbato2538]

Big influence also on Elvis Presley. Elvis knew the book by heart. A giving Soul Elvis was.

[@Rooster5573]

Mm

[@bkjan4282]

the background music is far too loud and unnecessary

[@BH-br4ee]

Just my personal opinion, but I think this could have done without the happy go lucky Christian chorus and chirpy music in the background.

[@ddpp1420]

B H I used to listen to this 40 years ago and think it magnificently produced Khalil’s words resonate hypnotically in Richards voice combined with the music

[@sommermckenzie6411]

BH tell that to 1974 😂 This brings back fond memories of hearing this in my home as a kid.

[@jimwiskus8862]

What....Christian chorus are we talking about here?

[@DON-qx2ik]

Try the version done by Paul Sparer. I confused this album with his. They are very similar except for the music. Some people enjoy the music. I prefer it without.

[@TheDennzio]

Christian chorus? Hate much?

[@africo9104]

This is supposed to be a beautiful resited poem, út the uscik is far too loud and spoils all the quietness of it.
