Jazzy Vocals Paired With Sometimes Acoustic/Sometimes Electr
Encompassed Runner | Florida, USA | 10/06/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Now this is different! SPEAK is a fun, hip, and uplifting album with a serious message that pierces poetically rather than in your face. No weak songs in the bunch.:

1. "I Am New" - jazzy, swinging celebration with acoustic guitar, harmonica, cello, drums

2. "Lost at Sea" - electric and rocking, yet with the jazzy vocals, both spoken and in melody with the occasional surprise high note

3. "Fence Riders" - yet another song to dance to: "...Can I sing about your maker and have you not roll your eyes...I know it don't make sense to those who ride the fence/But I'm sold out to Christ..."

4. "Dearly Loved" - the first slow song, and a WOW of one at that as somehow Needham manages to exhort us to leave sin in a ballad that comes off as pure horizontal love rather than condemnation: "...It's worth it brothers and it's worth it friends..." (strings, acoustic guitar)

5. "For Freedom" - more great poetry and modern jazz

6. "Speak" - no jazz here, this title cut conveys a powerful message on the Great Commission (electic and acoustic)

7. "You Make Me Sing" - another upbeat tune

8. "Wake Up" - a call to service and abundant living

9. "Regardless" - about choosing obedience thru lyrics based on the trials of Job and Daniel's fiery furnace (electirc)

10. "Stand on Grace" - slow and simple

11. "The Gospel" - slow acoustic

12. "Benediction" - Whoa, what a conclusion: no music; just bold, rhythmic spoken word; powerful poem to evoke repentance and trust.



Enjoy, this is a fun CD. (Also, lyrics are scripturally sound with verse citations on liner notes to give background to each song.)"

A Wonderful Surprise

"I stumbled across Jimmy Needham as I was browsing through a christian music site. He is indeed a wonderful surprise. Strong lyrics. Strong voice. Love the music. I compare him to my pastor, who is a man of God, preaching the Word without apology. Jimmy does this in his songs. I'm buying two more of his albums to give as gifts."
