Despite the best selling series having many competitors, 'Wow Gospel' continues to find big sales by cherry picking choice cuts from a bunch of the major gospel releases and this latest two CD volume keeps up the good work. There are plenty of big hits here ranging from James Fortune & FIYA's "Still Able" and William McDowell's "Withholding Nothing" through to Tye Tribbett's "If He Did It Before (Same God)" and Kirk Franklin's "A God Like You". As usual there is a mix of traditional and urban sounds and with 30 songs on offer it's unlikely you'll enjoy everything but these samplers still show that the African American Church is a breeding ground for top talent.
