Bluegrass From Heaven, March 18, 2000

"reealways" (Las Vegas, Nevada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bluegrass From Heaven: The Essential Gospel Collection (Audio CD)

To me, gospel music should be simple and heartfelt. This CD has certainly accomplished that! I couldn't wait to play it on my computer; now it travels with me in my van. These songs take me back to a simpler time when the message didn't get masked by the music. The sincerity of the artists comes through their voices and their fingers in such a way that I really get lifted by their talents. For any Christian and/or bluegrass lover, this album is a must! I would love to find more like this one ... I keep huntin'...

A Great Introduction to Bluegrass Gospel Music, March 13, 2000

Bruce K. Day "sojourner" (Falls Church, VA United States) - See all my reviews
  

This review is from: Bluegrass From Heaven: The Essential Gospel Collection (Audio CD)

This CD contains many classic tunes from some of the best in the business. If you are curious about "Mountain Gospel" this makes a great starting point to explore the genre. It is also a great "centering" tool to use when the traffic is heavy and road-rage is imminent. I also play it in the car on my way to church committee meetings to help put me on the right path. Often good Christians lose track of where they are headed when the discussion gets heated. Sometimes I wish I could stop everyone and fire up Mack Wiseman singing "Dust on the Bible" or Betty J. Robinson with "Tramp on the Street". These songs speak to me from the faith of people living in a much tougher world than I do. They are also just plain pretty music from some of the best bluegrass and old-time country performers in the country.

Mediocre, January 31, 2003

John M. Cornelius (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bluegrass From Heaven: The Essential Gospel Collection (Audio CD)

This sounds more like a "country gospel quartet" collection. For a much better bluegrass collection, try Rounder's "25 Years of Bluegrass." Much better gospel bluegrass CD's are Ricky Skaggs' "Soldier of the Cross" and The Isaacs' "Increase My Faith" or "Pieces of Our Past."
