Bit of a disappointing, laclustre collection of 10 songs from four great men of worship and praise. The passion of Robin in his own right is missing and it's all a bit samey/contemplative and strumma-strum. The badly written sleevenotes ("Join them on their journey through a tapestry...") tell us the collection was recorded when they all eventually met one another. The best bits are the superb B3 playing of Phil Madeira and the brilliantly minimalist bass work of Chris Donahue. But if truth be told, there are far better worship projects than this one in the bookshop CD racks.
