If you like the quasi neo-pentecostal/disco-funk with smatterings of orchestral stuff this is for you. It's nice to hear live praise that isn't a naff stereo mix of some big conference, banged out on a high speed copier and flogged for some extortionate price. . . This is well produced. There are some beautiful new songs here. This also contains a few archaic 'standards' eg, "He Is The King Of Kings", "There Is A Fountain" etc, which I don't think warrant continual exhumation. Speed on the day when we Brits produce music as well as our American brothers and sisters. Until we do Lord please keep them producing it. Another personal dislike was the exuberant overlays by the choir leader. . . the thing was cooking just as well without him. . . But all in all on an above average day - play to elevate the spirit whilst ironing.
