You have to admit that the sheer professional expertise know how, and mega-budget lavished on these Hosanna! recordings is quite breathtaking and laudable. To produce the sound of a two-thousand strong host of worshippers to such a needle-sharp brilliance is skill indeed though my personal preference is for the rawer, rough-edged sound of, say Springwood Church, Cardiff's 'And He Shall Reign' tape. Don Moen guides proceedings along smoothly though I question the reĀ­peated listening value of the closing evangeĀ­listic appeal, the sort of intrusion which though no doubt right on the night becomes an increasingly boring irritant on a recording. Who needs it? Some good new songs on offer, alongside Kendrick's standards "God Is Good" and "God With Us". Familiar ground too with "Ascribe Greatness", and a traditional hymn that still beats the lot for sheer grandeur "It Is Well With My Soul". Solid worship material.
