Gospel Today Presents Praise And Worship Vol.2 (Live At The Gospel Heritage Conference) [ECD] - Various Artists

Advantages: classic gospel
Disadvantages: none

...I have watched these guys a few times on GOD tv( very good), and they are undoubtedly one of the best gospel groups in the UK! I have not got this album at homebut after listening to my cousins i was astounded, and just the way they present both modern and old songs sends shivers down my spine. Classic Gospel. The best thing about i however is that it is done 'live' with a full-on proper audience there, but there is also that feel to it that it is done in a studio because of the professionalsim. This adds atmosphere and good harmonies in harmony. I like the fact that they have other well known Christian music artists with them doing their own songs for example Martin Smith from Delerious and Matt Redman. This all combines to make a great album for both believers and non-believers. I LOVE IT... Read review

Useless ID’s 'State Of Fear' also changes the tempo, with its short but well-situated guitar solo, fast-paced drumbeats and guitaring, re-kindling the punk-side of this album after... Read review

Advantages: Two demi-gods of the pop avant-garde flirt outrageously with accessibility
Disadvantages: There's still probably too much excellence on display for the mass market. Dammit!

...together. The Heads kept going for another three albums (and the quite, quite magnificent live concert movie 'Stop Making Sense'), always excellent but never QUITE as great as they'd been with the benefit of Eno's knob twiddling. Byrne won an Oscar for his contribution to the score of 'The Last Emperor', wrote and directed a movie of his own ('True Stories', whose songs were released as a Talking Heads album) and the Heads finally succumbed to their internal tensions / their singer's desire to do other things in 1991. Stay Hungry Unleashed from any obligations towards bandmates, Byrne launched into an orgy of polymathematics. He formed his own record label, Luaka Bop (initially to release compilations of popular songs from various cultures as he continued to be a leading light in the 'World Music' field, and later signing artists...
