'Live Worship: Influence' is a great live worship album recorded at Grapevine 2009. This latest 17 song offering from the annual event held at the Lincolnshire Showground showcases worship songs such as Brooke Fraser's "Desert Song", Godfrey Birtill's anthemic "Raise Up The Standard", Ben Cantelon's "Hallelujah", Tim Hughes' "I Love The King" and Brenton Brown and Paul Baloche's "Praise Is Rising" as well as the old hymn "Here Is Love". The worship leaders here are the usual Grapevine team - Howard Williams, Godfrey Birtill, Graeme Clark, Hannah Holland plus two or three names I didn't recognise. This is a powerful, atmospheric album featuring excellent vocalists and musicians, which will lift you into worship.
