Born Again: Roger McGuinn
Al Aronowitz, Blacklisted Masterpieces of Al Aronowitz, The, 1981
Roger McGuinn is explaining that he's found religion. He's now a Christian. Jesus is the only one in sight that he can believe in. He's still into Suba, the Eastern type faith under which he changed his name from Jimmy to Roger, but he's also gone back to Christ, like Larry Flynt and the President.
