I sometimes have to ask myself whether we need any more worship compilation albums. This is yet another. It has everything one might expect from such an album. Well known choruses, standard arrangements, etc. So what's special about this one? All the music has been sequenced by Christopher Norton on one keyboard and the sequences are available as programmed Midi files. Send off your money, plug the disc into a suitable keyboard and 'hey presto!', instant backing! There is imagination and skill in the programming and the vocals are good enough, though unremarkable. It left me with the thought that, if someone went to the expense of a keyboard capable of playing the Midi files, they'd actually bother to learn to play the thing! It's a completely professional production, but what is its value? Since this is effectively a demo disc for a product, where does worship end and merchandising start?
