I still believe every Christian should own at least one Keith Green album and 'The Keith Green Collection' could be a good place to start. Originally released in 1981, it gives a better representation of Keith's talent but again still suffers the same tragic traffic accidents when it comes to mixing live tracks into studio versions. Aside from the tedious and pointless spoken introduction, you get 12 songs. As a starter to get acquainted with the man's music, this is okay because you get some classics ("How Can They Live Without Jesus", "Your Love Broke Through") but he deserves serious investigation and all the best songs are featured in the excellent 'Ministry Years' set of four CDs/tapes. That album is worth the extra investment because Keith Green still has a great deal to say to the 90s church.
