A little while ago, in a galaxy not so far away, Mal Fletcher started making public appearances not as a speaker or media presenter but as a singer/songwriter/musician (piano & keyboards).
Mal doesn't normally perform these days, but we thought you might like to hear some of the backlist -- just for fun!
'Come Holy Spirit (Fall Afresh on Me)' is Mal's best known song -- it is still being recorded on albums around the world today -- but he also wrote many other songs. He was involved in co-producing some of the earliest Youth Alive albums (e.g. 'Shake This City' and 'Shake This City 2') but he also recorded three solo albums, for which he wrote most of the tracks.
Here are a few clips from these early albums, recorded between 1984 and 1989, in Australia and the UK. Click to listen to a clip. (Remember: if they sound very 80s, it's because they were!!)
Mal's favourites? 'I Want To Be Real', 'Come Holy Spirit' and 'Come Away'

I am constantly blessed & inspired by reading the Daily Recharge.
Thankyou Mal for being a faithful mouthpiece for God and being willing to pay the price that is necessary if one is going to minister life!
John, Australia
Great to hear those 80s songs (that blessed so many back then). 'To share God's love in music and word' is a great calling. I guess there's no time for a new album?!
Ann, Australia
After having a hard time talking with God one morning, I read to your Daily Recharge and suddenly felt God was speaking to me from the screen. Wow!!
