The Grapevine team has a reputation for choosing powerful, anointed modern songs for their live worship CDs as well as for producing smart cover designs. Equally significant is the wide range of sounds and styles they adopt, gifted, as they are, with a broad cross section of worship leaders. All these elements appear once more here, the set opening with a fine rendition of Tim Hughes' superb "Beautiful One". "There's A Song" has a funky Phatfish-type vibe; to the extent that lead vocalist Hannah Holland sounds most akin to Ms Fellingham! Here and elsewhere it's a full sound that's delivered, the worship band containing a strong string and brass section as well as a 20-piece choir. The oft-recorded "Imagine" gets the best cover-treatment here that I've heard, led with striking soulful deliberation by Delroy Hutchinson. Then comes the turn of the "prophetic" when Godfrey Birtill takes the stand, and a couple from veteran Chris Bowater, including his own "Vessels Made Of Clay" which also crops up on his recent solo album. With a good half-dozen proficient worship leaders taking part, it's perhaps a pity we don't hear more "original" material. Nevertheless this diverse and thoroughly engaging worship experience makes for one of the finest UK "conference" praise and worship discs to appear for some years.
