Amazon.com It takes a very special talent to blend the symphonic and gospel elements that are woven so tightly on Persuaded: Live in D.C. Then again, Richard Smallwood easily falls into that "special talent" category. Decorated with several Dove and Grammy awards, Smallwood's been churning out hand-raising anthems for three decades. With a background in both the classical and gospel worlds, Smallwood and his group Vision passionately worship their Lord with reckless abandon on this record. The opening two numbers capture Smallwood's talent for mixing styles with the orchestra intro of "Procession of the Levites," segued nicely with the blazing-hot "Anthem of Praise." Seeking inspiration? Listen to Charrisse Nelson-McIntosh belt out her worship in "Psalm 8" or Vanessa Williams's testimonial praise in "Your Love Divine." In both tracks, Smallwood leads Vision into dramatic vocal crescendos that lift and exude glory. Smallwood's skills as a composer and leader continue to grow as masterfully recorded on this exciting collection. --Michael Lyttle Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsOnly 5 Stars? Dennis R. Tuttle | Washington, D.C. | 02/10/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "You want this, and you want this now! I was in the audience the night this was recorded, and while the other buyers of the CD have given this work a 5-star rating, the fact is that the 10,000-plus of us packed into Jericho that night rated this performance a 38 on a scale of 1 to 10! And the finished CD doesn't miss a beat. This work is a stand-on-your-feet, raise-your-arms-high, clap-all-night production that is gospel in name, but soul in orchestration. Absolutely fantastic from start to finish--no matter your age, race, sex, religion, or convictions. You want this, and you want this now!" Richard does it again! Dwayne L. Smith | Washington, DC | 01/03/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "The title says it all. Richard Smallwood has firmly established himself as an accomplished musician and a minister of God's word. With his blending of several musical genres, including classical, blues, traditional gospel, R&B, along with annointed, God-inspired lyrics, one can't help but be spiritually transformed. Smallwood and Vision sing old favorites, such as Psalm 8, Calvary, and Your Love Divine, and add new, instant classics like My Everything and Coronation. One of the many highlights is his instrumental of It Is Well with my Soul/Come Ye Disconsolate. If you can't feel the spirit of God chiming through, someone may need to check your pulse. Smallwood's music has touched the lives of millions over his 25+ years of recorded music ministry. Persuaded is a testimony that his ministry is still strong and will continue to touch many lives. If you don't have the CD, get it. You won't be the same after listening to it." I AM PERSUADED! Shannon R. Campbell | Laurel, MD United States | 08/13/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "RICHARD SMALLWOOD IS THE MAESTRO OF GOSPEL MUSIC. FROM THE FIRST ALBUM TO THE LATEST HE IS STILL AWESOME! "PSALMS 8" IS MAJESTIC AND "IT IS WELL" TRULY SHOWS GOD'S WONDERFULL ABILITY TO SHOW HIMSELF THROUGH HIS PEOPLE. I WOULD INSIST THAT YOU INVEST IN THIS CD AND BE BLESSED!"
