The era has long gone since the early days of the 'Best. Ever!' worship series when the albums were available in UK supermarkets and sold in tens of thousands. But there is still mileage in the series as is evident from this latest three CD set, which brings together a mass of recordings/songs from the likes of Worship Central, Brenton Brown, Israel Houghton, Stuart Townend, Planetshakers, Martin Smith, All Sons & Daughters, Bethel Music, Darlene Zschech and many more. Styles occasionally clash, of course, and you don't always get the best recording of a particular song (eg, the rendition of "10,000 Reasons" was recorded at Soul Survivor & Momentum). But few can argue that 50 tracks is value for money and there are several songs here which already have earned the right to be called classics.
