Best Of compilations come in all shapes and quality. But few have come along in recent years that will stay in the 'to play' CD-stack as readily as this gem. Mar­garet's albums (you remember 'em: The Reckoning', 'Never For Nothing', 'Immigrant's Daughter' and 'Sim­ple House1) are exceptional, intelligent, sensitive, mov­ing and hugely exciting examples of rock gospel and the tracks here have all become major Christian radio successes in the States. The compilation is set off with a new track ('previously unreleased' or specially-recorded-to-ensure-the-fan-has-to-purchase, I know not). But I can report that the song, "This Love" is a poignant mid-tempo cut and every bit as good as most of the other gems here.
