How do you say anything new about this groundbreaking brother and sister duo? Well perhaps that's the point. These 10 songs are nothing new and they're almost all taken from two previous albums, 1987's 'BeBe & CeCe Winans' and 1988's 'Heaven'. Tracks chosen include a guest appearance from Whitney Houston on "Hold Up The Light" and she's also included in backing vocals on "Celebrate New Life". BeBe and CeCe's version of Paul Simon's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" is also included. Production and vocals are slick if now a little dated and the style fits the inclusion of Whitney Houston as it's similar to what we've got used to from her. Yet despite the positives, I fail to see the reason for marketing an album which is virtually made up of tracks from two previous albums.
