Article Title: Sammy's Desert Songs

Comment: Since I've heard 'Visions and dreams' by the Electrics in the early 90s I tried to get everything by Sammy Horner (incl. Celtic Praise, The Electrics, Dark Country, the Seanachaidh and even a tape with rockn'roll songs for kids by Sam Horner and the Wonderkids). For me he is little bit like a christian Shane MacGowan (with a different spirit and a different kind of humour). So I also bought this Cd. This time it sounds not celtic at all, it is more or less a country album with very honest songs about finding hope in Jesus in troubled, painful and confusing times. It sounds a little bit like Buddy Miller or even Woven Hand. I like the guitar playing of Jimmy D. Like all good songwriters Sammy Horner writes songs in the ups and downs of live. These songs for sure were written in a time when life was not so easy. For me the music of Sammy Horner is very encouraging. (Brian Houston is similar - also a very good songwriter)
