Currently studying towards a Diploma in Dyslexia management to eventually help those who struggle with this. Now exam time in the next few weeks. Wish me luck! Not been around for a while; 6 family deaths in the past 12 months.... Now I'm trying again!

I could not, even if I tried, write anything negative about this double CD featuring Aaron Neville. This man's voice is phenomenal and wonderfully unique. He is originally from New Orleans and has a wonderful New Orleans Rhythm and Blues sound. His voice will reach your inner being every time he opens his mouth and a note comes out! There is a wide spectrum throughout this particular collection. We have the up-tempo and foot-tapping beat of 'Oh happy Day' & 'I saw the light' to the sultry, moody sound of 'Ave Maria' and 'Amazing grace.'
The rest of the songs included in these 2 CD's are: What a friend we have in Jesus, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Morning has Broken, If I had a Hammer, Let it Be , Mary don't you Weep, Steer me Right, Gotta Serve Somebody, A Change is Gonna Come, I Believe, Let Go, Banks of the River Jordan, Jesus is a friend of Mine, Jesus Jesus Jesus, Jesus Loves Me, Singing you a Prayer, What would Jesus Do?, Going Home, Were you there?, I shall be released.
Happy, sultry, or meditative it's all here in the 2 CD collection of 'Gospel Roots,' on an EMI label. The cover design is simple, with Aaron Neville in a relaxed pose on a bridge, and to the rear is the artiste again, but this time looking more upbeat and rugged. The cover portrays Aaron like his music: sultry and uptempo!
At £14.99, which is what I bought it for, the value for money outweighs the price. A big guy with an angelic voice, Aaron's renditions will de-stress you, return some peace into your life; and anyone wanting to find some solace or just pure easy listening at it's very best, it's got to be this collection!
