One of my favorite Christmas presents was the cd "Rejoice" by First Call. It is a collection of hymns sung a cappella. The sound reminds me of the old group 2nd Chapter of Acts (still miss them). Some of the arrangements are a little funky, but there are two harmonica solos by the master Buddy Green which tear your heart out--why is it that old hymns sound so poignant when played on a harmonica or violin?
Overall, the album is really fine--One track I especially enjoy is "Come to Jesus" which I plan to use in Abilene later this month.
Thanks kids for the present!
