Modern Worship With A (Traditional Country) Twist| Posted November 19, 2009 Time-Life's latest Songs 4 Worship project Country Live features some of Country Music's biggest names, past and present, participate in this live worship experience recorded at Nashville's storied Ryman Auditorium.
CM's heritage is well represented by the various artists who lend their considerable talent to this event. Representing the old school, the Palmetto State Quartet gives us their harmony-rich take on Darrell Evans' "Trading My Sorrows," while elder-statesman Randy Travis covers "Open the Eyes of My Heart." Multi-platinum artist Collin Raye makes "Indescribable" his. Other contributors include Susan Ashton, Bryan White, Alison Krauss, Diamond Rio and the venerable Alabama.
Of the album's 15 worship tracks, 12 are less than a decade old and well represent the current (mega-popular) worship leaders such as Tomlin, Redman, Riddle, Baloche, etc. The producers' particular choices of contemporary worship songs and the artists who perform them make for some interesting interpretations. If you're looking for pop-worship with a modern country flavor, this album does not fit that bill. However, if you're a fan of more traditional country music and wonder how it might meld with popular modern worship then, by all means, give this disc a spin.
