If you're new to CCM or the Peacock discography, 'In The Light' offers a neat retrospective. The title track has of course been memorably covered by dc Talk but the 1991 original, lighter and without the grunge factor, shows the sheer quality of the song. The album most heavily re-visited on this compilation is his Brown Bannister produced debut 'Secret Of Time' (six songs - including the infectious "Big Man's Hat") while there are also cuts from 'Everything That's On My Mind', 'Lie Down In The Grass' and 'West Coast Diaries Vol 2'. Peacock completists will want this if only for the fascinating remix of "Message Boy". Great CCM from one of Christendom's most articulate songwriters.
