An interesting cull of recent material (1998 and later) from various sources, including the Vineyard (both London and Anaheim), Sue Rinaldi, Yfriday, Stuart Townend, Brian Houston, Matt Redman, Chris Bowater and Bryn Haworth. Vocals are very well handled by Mai Pope, Julie Costello and David Lyle Morris, with experienced musos such as Mark Edwards, Neil Costello and Dave Clifton in the band. Highlights for me are Julie's simple yet beautiful treatment of Bryn's "More Lord", with just Mark's piano as accompaniment; an equally straightforward yet equally moving reading by Mal and his keyboard of Stuart Townend's "Pour Over Me", and Julie and Mal teaming up with Dave for Nathan Fellingham's Stoneleigh favourite "Awake, Awake, 0 Zion". Some measure of the quality of this one is the fact that five songs out of 12 have made the UCB Europe high rotation playlist. Heartily recommended.
