Southern Harmony - Celebration
This project is a good explanation as to why mixed groups are becoming so very popular today. This CD is so diversified that I would call it a Traditional Progressive Southern Gospel with a touch of Soul album. There really is something for everybody to listen to, but I honestly think that everyone will like the whole CD. While it starts off with what I pick as my favorite song on the CD, there are several others that come very close to being my favorite pick also. “Long As I Got King Jesus” is one of those Progressive SG songs with a little Soul added in. This song will get the congregation in any church to moving, swaying, and down right worshipping. This is the first radio release from the project and I believe that it should do very well. DJs, my advice is to play this one in “heavy” rotation. “Tell It All” just picks up where the first song leaves off. While not quite as “soulful”, the high energy continues, but this time with a little “country” flair. Penned by Gina Vera, this is a wonderful “testimony” song. Speaking of the “country” touch, “You Don’t Even Want To Make Me Pray” will keep your attention. The unique message of this song will keep you listening all the way through. Moving into the Traditional SG sound with “It’ll Happen Again”, this group shows that it can sing any style and do it very well. Make sure that you have on your running shoes when “I Can Go To God In Prayer” comes on. Although it’s just three background singers, you will swear that it is a “black” choir backing them. Once again, we are talking high energy here. Slowing the tempo down, “What About His Grace” is a beautiful ballad with a message that will grip your heart. Closing out the CD with a true Southern Gospel song, “God Will Always Finish What He Starts”, written by John Mathis, this fine young group maintains the same excitement that the started the CD with. Other songs include the old “Classic” hymn ‘How Great Thou Art”, “When We See Jesus”, and “From Glory To Glory” The tracks on this recording are all very clean and full sounding. You can hear the hit single, “Long As I Got King Jesus” here.

I haven't heard the whole CD, but I keep hearing Long as I got King Jesus on Solid Gospel and since the rest of the CD seems to be as good a that song, then I have got to have a copy of the whole CD.
