 Great music July 4, 2006

Heard an early release of this newest album. If you are a Selah fan or general fan of Christian music, this album will be a must have! Great new songs along with fantastic performances by some "guest artists". Something for everyone! Selah continues to evolve their music so that it stays current yet provides the hallmark Selah sound that we love!
Still listening August 20, 2006

I got this album knowing Nicol had left the group and was worrying about how much I would like it. No worries left. Yes, her voice is missed, but I think this album of duets with other artists is the perfect intro for Amy Perry. The fantastic Selah harmonies are still here, just a little different sounding. "God Bless the Broken Road" is a title track you can listen to repeatedly. "Gentle Healer," an old Michael Card song, is simply beautiful given the "Selah" treatment. "I Will Sing of My Redeemer" is a new hymn that the group wrote (with an added bonus of Todd Smith's little girls singing at the end). Russ Taff's "Ain't No Grave" is...well, just listen and check that one out! There is also a redo of the hymn "Be Thou Near to Me"--which appeared on Greatest Hymns with Jim Brickman, but this time Amy Perry is the female vocal. My two personal favorites are "Follow Jesus" and the final cut, "Softly and Tenderly"--Allan's duet with Cynthia Clawson. That song alone is worth the price of the CD, but every song on here is wonderful. Also, a great feature with Selah albums are the copious liner notes. You won't regret buying this!
Different But Still Very Good November 8, 2006

My first introduction to Selah was hearing "It Is Well With My Soul" on the radio. The Selah era with Nicole (Selah I) was VERY, VERY good.
The first time I saw Selah in concert was with Melodie Crittenden (Selah II). It was different from Selah I, but it was still VERY, VERY good.
Now I get to hear them with various other artists (including Amy Perry, who's addition creates Selah III). Once again, it's different from before, but it is still VERY, VERY good.
Don't buy this CD expecting to hear Selah as it was with Nicole or Melodie (even though Melodie has a cut on the CD).
What you do get when you buy this CD is the opportunity to hear Todd and Allan sing with some of the top female Christian vocalists out there. For me, it was well worth the money.
B.T.W. A previous reviewer stated ... "Jason and Adam of the Crabb Family together with Todd Smith just do not have the soul to undertake this [Ain't No Grave] bluesy Gospel tune." I respectfully have to disagree. They nail this song. I didn't realize this song was included on the CD when I bought it. If I had, "Ain't No Grave" would've been reason enough to make the purchase.

Fabulous CD...liked by old and young in our home! The Selah flavor we love adding a twist with the duets!
Just Beautiful !!! November 9, 2006

Knowing that this wasn't going to be "pure Selah," I wasn't sure I'd like this new CD. Now that Nicol (Smith) Sponberg is gone from the trio, I was afraid of how the sound would change - and with so many other artists chiming in on this collection of duets, I didn't think it would sound all that Selah'y. Yes, I know that's not a word. :-)
I was delighted to find that my worry was all for naught! It's beautiful. Every track has something to offer - which is certainly a Selah tradition in my book.
The third track ("Glory," with Nichole Norderman) is so touching, it brings tears to my eyes regularly. Todd and Nichole sound so beautiful together. I like to sing it at the top of my lungs - but only when I am alone in my car or my hubby is not home!
I recently chose it to be one of the songs played for my late mother's memorial service. Coincidentally, I also chose another song of Nichole's (on her "Brave" album - not on this one) for the service. The song was "What If."
The third (and last) song played for the service was Elvis' rendition of Amazing Grace - a favorite of my mother's. I hope that the these songs were really heard by the attendees and that perhaps they helped someone who was needing to finally reach out to our savior, Jesus Christ. If "What If" can't change the mind of any agnostic, I don't know what can!
