Cool and Diverse

I found Glory to be an interesting look at Michael W. Smith's creative genius. On first listen, here are some things I liked and Didn't like.
THINGS I LIKED:
It's an instrumental album. I didn't know that until I started listening, so that was a fun surprise. The instrumentation and musicianship are outstanding. Really, you'd expect that from Michael. I loved the little glimpses of a few classic MWS songs that sort of sat underneath. Dynamically, the tone of the album is quite diverse. It refreshes your heart and challenges you to follow along at different times which makes for a fun ride.
THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE:
At times I wasn't sure if I was listening to an instrumental worship album, or a movie score. And while the dyanmics were cool, it was a bit confusing. so it's a bit of a trade off.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the album. To me, its best use would be as backgound music for your social event or just for your day.
