Instrumental compiled from the albums of Rob And Gilly Bennett (classical guitars), Keith Routledge (piano) and Bob McKay (flute) and the string quartet, Carnelian Quartet. Songs are by Graham Kendrick and Chris Bowater among others. This is not a bad album with a name to provide "that quiet place where the soul can be nourished" and this, the Spring volume, does have its moments. For me the standout tracks are "The Servant King" and "Just Like You Promised/When I Look Into Your Holiness". Some of the other tracks are also very good (some aren't!) but these two blend the selection of instruments together effectively and as a result are the most moving. Not an album to listen to every day, but it does have its moments.
