Just as secular music has Status Quo, so it is that CCM has its own artists and styles that are guaranteed to remain the same forever. One such style is the easy listening instrumental collection of favourite hymns and choruses. There are many on the market and almost all of them would make perfect but irritating background music to play in lifts. Occasionally, though, just occasionally, along comes something that is actually worth listening to. 'The Touch' and 'Such Love' by Rob And Gilly Bennett are reissues of two classic albums now released as a low price (£15.99) double album. Both albums have been around for some time now and have sold over 100,000 copies between them, which would be a reasonable number even for a secular album. Granted, the husband and wife's classical guitar stylings aren't to everyone's tastes but their deft renditions of Christian evergreens do provide a pleasant spiritual atmosphere. 100,000 Christians can't all be wrong!
