"This is an excelent CD. BTR really shows how they can Rock and Roll for the LORD! This is better than their first one. They rock more on this one. Before I bought it, I didn't know who they were. Then, they came to this confrence and I liked their style. When I first bought it, I only got it for "WWJD" and "Star In The Book Of Life". After one spin, I liked the whole thing. I like anything that worships the LORD but the songs that stuck out were, "Still Breathing", "God Made Heaven", "Jimmy", "Star In The Book Of Life", "Wouldn't It Be Cool", "WWJD", "Real Thing", "West Memphis Lawyer", and "Come On People". I liked the Thank You segment. They were funny in that."
The Real Thing-Big Tent Revival

"This was a definite change for the better. The band's third album showed a lot more edge and musical improvement. The lyrics of the CD were equally deft and memorable. This rock oriented CD demonstrates the band's growth and willingness to explore their music.Everything from the blues to ballads was explored. The after-credit tracks rock!!! Emphasizing a real walk with Christ the album does not disappoint.I especially liked the credits on Track 11, this is not a CD for a lazy day,but more like a fast drive down a hot Texas highway!!!"
Great mix of up-lifting, Christian Rock!!

"Big Tent Revival's "Amplifier" has a great mix of soft, mellow, easy listening tracks, and hard rock, fist pumping music. Not only do you get the 10 songs listed, but after the band says their thank yous on track 11, 4 more songs come on. These are the songs that will get you out of your seat, and praising the Lord through great Rock music. Great CD. A must for all fans of Christian Rock!!"
The absolute best CD from BTR, ever!

"This CD is an absolute masterpiece. Steve Wiggins and Co. have done an outstanding job on this project, and it shows. With songs like "Still Breathing," "WWJD," and "Star in the Book of Life," BTR rocks! But the best thing about this CD is the bonus tracks from 12 through 15. These are the songs that will blow you away! Definitely a must-have!"
