Solid debut
Posted April 23, 2008
By bjburly,
At first listen to this my first response was "WOW!!!" Avalon's ubeat, infectious tunes(along with their OUTSTANDING vocals) are only a part of what makes this release so great. And although Avalon may not be the best that this dynamic foursome has to offer (some of the songs may sound a bit outdated in comparison to today's music), it DOES feature layers of pop-production and the soothing ballads that Avalon is known for in the smash hits "Give It Up", "This Love", "The Greatest Story", and "Picture Perfect World", all of which will inspire you in your walk with Christ!! Also look for the beautifully-done version of "My Jesus, I Love Thee", which is done mostly acapella and really shows off the group's vocal capabilities. "Saviour Love" isn't the biggest highlight on the project--it alsmost seems to drag a little in the middle--but is nice overall. On "Jesus Is Lord" (probably the biggest departure for the group) just close your eyes and think hard enough and you'll feel like you're at an outside BBQ cookout. It conveys a really great message, even still after over a decade of exposure, which can be said for all of the ten songs on this successful debut. And once you buy this (which I really hope you will) don't stop there... Avalon only gets better and better!! I recommend this for everybody--breath-taking vocals, positive messages, and great catchy tunes... what could be better?? GO AVALON!!!
