My Review:

Let me start by saying that the music on this CD was great. Good rhythms, solid worship songs. But I had a little bit of trouble getting past the audio issues with this recording. Normally, I just crank up the volume - no problem. But the sounds quality was bad enough that it was difficult to get into and enjoy. It is a Live CD, so I can't take stars away from my rating because of that. 

That being said, the songs would be wonderful for the younger set, (teenagers, young adults) or for contemporary congregations. The songs were engaging and catchy, easy to follow and sing along with. It's something the whole church can sing along with and enjoy. 

I would definitely like to to see some sheet music to these songs, as I know my church would enjoy using these songs as part of our worship on Sunday nights.
