Now a solo after his successful duo albums with his dad Jeoffrey, Aaron looks like someone who should be in Boyzone. He sounds like it too, until one actually listens to what he is singing and it is God all the way through. Interestingly enough he has had it produced by two different sets of producers which makes one feel like one has listened to an old album, side A and B. The first half is much more powerful and uptempo, with tracks like "Let It Out" and the title track "Imagine", whereas the second half is more ballady and worshipful, with "He Believes In You" and the beautiful "Renaissance Love". A CD definitely to be bought and left lying around to show your friends that anything Boyzone, etc can do, Christians can do just as well or better.

I have this great cd in my huge ccm collection; luv it!!Aaron's first solo effort after the departure from the duo with his dad Jeoffrey(who had a solo in 1985). The cd starter song right away"captured" me; great song "Captured". I just luv the title song "Imagine", it is the perfect song to hi-light his vocals:I just luv the music score to it also. What an awesome job on the song "GOD's Here". "Love Life" is another great song! Way to go again Aaron, you nailed this one!! "Make YOUR Mark" is another outstanding song on the cd. It seems as if "Make YOUR Mark" would have faired better as the cd closer than the pop rocker song "Alive". Aaron also became part of a country duo act Blue Country with a hit in 2003; Aaron's son is also pursuing a singing career; what can you say, it runs in the family!!GOD Bless! -Don
