Well, I suppose entitling an album half-dead (or mushy peas) worship would not shift much product. Yet another compilation, this time 'live worship' from various sources. Whilst songs have been reasonably assembled, the album lacks the continuity and crackle of a recorded service. It is also described as a resource though some of the titles (i.e. Twila Paris's 'He Is Exalted' and Dave Bilborough's 'In The Name Of The Lord') will be familiar to many already. I enjoyed Chris Falson's 'I Walk By Faith', though wonder what Robert Palmer would make of it) you remember that black clad girly backing band?) The choral arrangement of Michael and Deborah Smith's 'Great Is The Lord' was a pleasant surprise, and possibly incorporating more of this type of arrangement would have made things more interesting. The lightning bolt on the cover looks pretty groovy too, but apart from that.
