"My DAD had this as an album and would play it every weekend. He lost the album during a move and I will replace it with this CD. My brothers and I often talk about the great times in our childhood listening to these beautiful songs and listening to our DAD's stories.
I can always depend on Amazon to help me find these kinds of items.
Beautiful melodies and great songs..my children now tap there feet when I play my Chuck Wagon Gang CD's."

""Mighty Close to Heaven" features good, hard toe-tapping male-female harmony in the Country tradition. (Yes, some may wish to stand). Favorite tracks are always subjective but this listener especially liked "The Son Hath Made Me Free" and "I Love My Savior Too". None disappoint. If there is a weak spot to this album, it lies in the paltry inserted jacket. Instead of four nondescript photos, why couldn't the producers have included some information about the group? Some of us may be curious! The 5 performers herein appear too young to be CWG originals. Where do they fit in? One may be reminded of the R&R group, The Drifters which changed lead singers over the years but kept the same mellow sound. That point aside, "Mighty Close to Heaven" offers wonderful, pure gospel music and warrants a 5 star rating without reservation."
