For this 1974 release, the sound of the group has expanded from their debut to introduce a fiddle to augment the steel playing that is at the heart of the band. Once again the mix of country, folk, pop and gospel come into play so that there's a rich instrumental sound. Once again they have blended a pile of Christian songs and hymns together in their own unique style. There's a great version of Andrae Crouch's "I've Got Confidence" and the classic country song "Keep On The Sunny Side" which features some great piano playing. "I Believe" features some more signature steel guitar and "Bound For Glory" has some perfect country twang!
