Souvenir value, songlist and style, the three factors most likely to influence your decision to buy a live worship album. The first is easy - you know if you were at Grapevine 2001 in Lincolnshire. The second doesn't take too much explanation either - a mixture of homegrown material from worship leaders Geoffrey Birtill and Dave Middleton, plus a sprinkling of current favourites - "Your Love Is Amazing", "Open The Eyes Of My Heart", "Jesus, All For Jesus" and Redman's "The Father's Son". When the reggae-tinged "One Love Shared Between Us" kicked in, I half expected an excerpt from the similarly-named Bob Marley track, but there was nothing as daring as that. Which leads on to the third factor - as praise and worship albums go, it's pretty safe and unadventurous. Sensitively led, some nice fills from the brass section, but nothing really sets it apart from similar albums.
