Love the updated versions of Keith Green's music-maintains his heart, even his voice ('duets') with contemporary artists & sounds.
CD Reviews
If you like Keith Green songs, stick to Keith Green

"Very disappointing album, which, as another reviewer said, basically leaves you wanting to hear the Keith Green originals. The only highlights (and "highlight" seems like a strong word), were Martin Smith's Create in Me a Clean Heart and Matt Redman's Make my life a prayer to you. Stick to "The Ministry Years." Keith Green sings with a whole lot more passion than these overly synthesized covers."
An incredible effort at capturing Keith Green's spirit.

"As I read through the reviews posted by other people I was saddened to see people so critical about this CD. As a new Christian I was touched by this music and the sheer power of the lyrics. The focus isn't on the vocal style, the music, or the beat. Its Jesus. Thats how Keith would have wanted it. The music is wonderful. All the artists are very talented and do their best to pay tribute to a man so dedicated to the Lord's work. It is uplifting, stirring, and an essential CD for any christian music fan."
Mostly good

"I mostly enjoyed this album. Why not "completely enjoyed?" Well, I've heard Keith Green's version of all these songs before, so sometimes when you've heard and liked something in one style and you hear it a different style it can be a little jarring."
Wonderful adaptation of Keith Green's music

"Keith's music with a modern sound. Words are the same wonderful message as always. I really enjoyed this cd and will continue to enjoy it as much as I did Keith's performance of his songs. If you enjoy today's sound, you'll like this cd."
