Often times, coming off a really good recording, it is hare to out do the last performance. Not so with this new CD release by the Hoppers. This is no doubt one of the biggest sounding CDs that the Hoppers have ever put out, and it has some great sounds on it.  It starts out with a very nice rendition of the old hymn “I Sing The Mighty Power”. This just sets the mood for entire project.

There is also a very nice cover of the Carol Roberson song “She Found Jesus Alive”. They give it an extra flair that I haven’t heard on any other recordings of this song. You will need about two boxes of Kleenex as you listen to a heart-rending performance by Connie on “See How She Loves Him”, a song of how strong the love between a man and wife are even through the terrible circumstance of Alzheimers.

There are some really good songs on here that I would like to see go to radio, including “Great Day In The Morning”, “God Is Good’, “I Call You Faithful”, and “Jerusalem.” The first three are nice upbeat songs that are always great for radio, but “Jerusalem” is a song that has taken the Hoppers a step further than they have ever been. Even though the track starts out reminiscent to the Lion King sound track and you keep waiting for this big lion roar, it sets the environment for the rest of the song. You are waiting in anticipation for the song, and you are not disappointed. This song is sure to have people out of their seats at concerts, but it may also be hard to keep your car on the road while listening to this at drive time.

“We Are America” is a nice patriotic song, which is always appropriate in this time we live in. It is nice to see Spring Hill using a lot of patriotic material with their artists.

Other songs include “Child Of God”, “Going Home Forever”, and “Look For Me Around The Throne”.

I think "Jerusalem" has to be the biggest song that The Hoppers has ever done.

I love it, but this is coming from someone who enjoys the progressive.

I am a huge Hoppers fan.And I have made huge efforts to try to purchase as many Hoppers projects as possible.Tho' I have only heard the demo version of this recording I know it is going to be one of my favs and will probably be all that I listen to for the next month as soon as I purchase it.Like everyone else's comments I can already say thet "Jerusalem" is going to be my favorite track.I think it'll probably get a 1 or 2 spot on the chart in due time
