Guitarist, multi-instrumentalist extraordinaire. Tom Pryor the music director for Community Church in Babylon, NY takes us on his musical journey and influences from classical to jazz, from Rock-n-Roll to Christian Worship music.  In this episode, we hear a beautiful tune written for his wife called "Everyday Valentine" and end with an upbeat rock'n version of an original worship song.  We explore the music which is the foundation of the "Church for People or aren't Church People". They say there are only six degrees of separation between all of us, in the case of getting to know Tom, we found just two degrees, as we discovered a mutual friend in Eric McCormack, another guest musician featured in episode #4. Tom along with Lou Pizichillo is the young pastor of Community Church in Babylon, a non-denominational Christian church unlike any with which your host is acquainted. We unpack the intricacies of a Christian worship group along with the influences that support the message series at each Sunday service.   I discovered Tom Pryor when I started attending Community Church just a mile away from my home in Babylon Village.  As a "cradle Catholic", I was fortunate enough to experience a welcoming community that just so happened to have fantastic music, along with messages and sermons to aid in my spiritual growth.  Music can be a spiritual experience for many of us, for the performers as well as their audiences. Whether in a bar, pub, concert hall, or in your community church, all of these venues are the wellsprings that feed "The Long Island Sound".
