The group comprise the late George Younce, Jake Hess, Wesley Pritchard and Ernie Haase. Obviously this is an attempt to lay down an album from singers from the Gaither group. It is pleasant enough but lacks any real drive. There are three tracks I like: "How Long Has It Been", "He Knows Just What I Need" and "Taller Than Trees". The sort of album to put on for quiet background reflection but hardly outstanding. Maybe those who saw the group perform would want this as a souvenir, but I can't see it having much widespread appeal.
