This is another of those 'Don't you remember it well' kind of products. Recorded live at the New Wine 1992 event, it showcases Eddie and Bryn in the now customary overkill of the Praise & Worship market. It's cheap to produce, a number of people will have attended so they're sure to sell a few copies and Bryn's a solid, established name to back up the whole affair. Of course the industry needs to find a way to make a sure-fire selling success in order that it can continue, so you can't blame ICC for doing it, and indeed the quality isn't all that bad (in fact, pretty good), it's just that you can't help but feel that other, better, material could be produced at the expense of this. Long may New Wine and heir associated albums continue, but why not ask the people who may end up buying this whether they would like to buy a studio recorded album for a pound or two more? For those who were at New Wine '92 the ones included here range from "Mourning into Dancing" to Musseau and Doerkson's "Whatever Is True". Ten songs in all, for New Wine devotees only I would guess.
