With 18 tracks, this CD represents excellent value for money from a group that is almost impossible to dislike as their singing and diction is impeccable. The cover photo depicts a smiling and happy group and I have never seen them anything other than joyous on their many Homecoming DVD appearances. This family group has been recording a vast swathe of albums since their 1962 debut and they appear to show no signs of slowing down. When you listen to such tracks here as "Stepping On The Clouds", "Come On Children Let's Sing", "The Holy Hills Of Heaven Call Me" and "It's Shouting Time In Heaven" it's obvious that these down home harmonizers are more than capable of whipping up a storm in a concert (several of these tracks are pulled from live recordings). Having said that, I believe that there are stronger groups in the southern gospel genre. But no doubt this compilation will connect with fans of these amiable veterans.
