Latest in Alliance Music's Heart Of Worship series and sporting a Budget Classics £5.99 sticker, this 10 track CD is looking for a new home, good or otherwise, failing which it will make a novelty mat for my coffee mug. Singers C Bamy Robertson and his five friends, who don't actually put their names on the front of the album, tell us in the sleeve notes that they had "a great time praising our Lord together through music. Personally, I feel perhaps they did the rest of us a disservice by having the tape running while they did so! To be fair there are a couple of pleasant enough tracks, especially those where Barny contributes some vocal percussion. But doing "Seek Ye First" and "All Creatures Of Our God And King" in a style reminiscent of Radio 2 at its worst - for me anyway - just doesn't touch the heart of worship, and as for "classics" -I think not.
