Recording information: Cogic Cathedral, West Los Angeles, CA (07/10/2004). Kurt Carr, in his ascendance to a position near the pinnacle of the gospel world, has embraced music and thought from varied aspects of the world, a trait suffused throughout his polychromatic music. His 2005 live record, ONE CHURCH, embodies the open-minded nature that nurtures his music, and the genuine passion that drives him. The opening track, "Reign," at first seems a familiar contemporary gospel tune (a la Kirk Franklin), but then the jazzy keyboard lines meld with swirling pop synthesizers for an original touch. On "God Great God," Carr proposes throwing out all denominations (hence "one church") with ardent shouts filled with passion and glory. Rarely afraid to travel unknown roads, Carr asks "Have you ever heard an accordion in church" on "Psalm 68 (Let Our God Arise)," before throwing in a Spanish guitar for good measure. The resultant track is a magnificent song that switches directions for a truly rapturous feel. Kurt Carr is one of the most exciting voices in modern gospel, and ONE CHURCH captures his flair.
Advantages: free, interesting crypt, peaceful Disadvantages: not so many memorials to look at
...and good old Samuel Pepys who was christened in old Saint Brides. Saint Brides is a survivor. The present church dates from the 1670s and is one of 24 renaming Wren churches built after the Great Fire of London. Unfortunately Saint Brides was damaged considerably by incendiary bombs in the second world war leaving just a wall and the steeple in tact. Luckily it was sympathetically restored by Godfrey Allen after the Second World Wart back o its former glory.
Its pretty easy to find Saint Brides. Just look for the wonderful steeple which at 225 feet is one of the highest of Wren's amazing churches. It is located on the eastern end of Fleet Street near where it joins with Ludgate Hill. Its easy to get to a number of buses including the 15, 11, 25 and 4 run past it. Blackfriars is the nearest tube station (Circe and District) but it is...

...?, and all of a sudden, a whole cottage industry sprang up tracing the fictional Robert Langdon?s breathless dash across London on so-called Da Vinci Tours. One of the most popular stops on that tour is Temple Church, and for a short time after the release of the film, it was a virtual no-go area for regular visitors, having been swamped by oversized Americans in daft clothing and breathless snap-happy Japanese. If it sounds like I am lazily reverting to national stereotype it?s because I speak from personal experience. I?ve lost count of the times that my quiet contemplation was interrupted by squeals of delight from ?Marty? and ?Mabel? as they discovered something they?d seen in ?that movie?. Sigh.
If I am taking a little while to come to the business end of this review, it?s because I am not a ?Grail tourist? and felt it imperative to...

Advantages: Beautiful church, great views of Barcelona below. Disadvantages: None
.... The first tier is brown stone and the top tier is white stone.
Steps lead up to the entrance of the church, and standing outside looking up, it looks just as impressive as it does when viewed from a distance anywhere in Barcelona.
There is a paved 'square' area, which also serves as a viewing platform, giving breathtaking panoramic views of the city below.
We went inside the church (admission is free) and although it is small inside, it is absolutely beautiful, with its stained windows and detailed stone work. The altar has three parts with statues above, one of which being a copy of the Black Madonna. The original of this statue can be seen at Monserrat.
It is possible to light a candle in the church after making a donation (which I did) which goes towards the upkeep of the church.
The statue of Jesus Christ is accessible via an interior...
