The fact that two tracks from this set, Danica Bryan's haunting reading of Jamie Hill's mid tempo "Lord I Receive Your Love" and Dan Wheeler's gutsy interpretation of "I Will Hold On" penned by Vineyard UK's Nigel Briggs, are already getting radio exposure on the Cross Rhythms Verticality praise and worship programme shows that the claim of the sleeve, "Passion fuelled worship for a new generation" has been impressively achieved. For a start the songs have been wisely selected - Tim Hughes' "Giver Of Life", Johnny Parks' "Glory", Vicky Beeching's "Extravagant Worship", Namelessmusic's "My Everything". Secondly, that always reliable producer Paul Burton has pulled in Neil Wilson (of steve) and Mrs Burton (as well as Bryan and Wheeler) to handle the vocals and a great job they do. A fine studio album then that takes you easily into worship while never sacrificing crisp production values.
