A few decades ago nearly every country singer had at least one--often more--gospel albums in their catalog. Today, aside from gospel veteran Amy Grant, who balances the sacred and secular, and Randy Travis, that concept has long faded. For Alan Jackson, however, treating the musical past as present has been a way of life, as it is with these 15 timeless hymns from his youth. Recorded with just two acoustic guitars and a piano, it was originally a private Christmas present to his mother. The spare instrumentation is surprisingly robust behind his flawless readings of "I'll Fly Away," "Softly and Tenderly," "How Great Thou Art," "Are You Washed in the Blood?," and "The Old Rugged Cross," all as beguilingly unpretentious as any of his country hits. Instead of an all-star duet, wife Denise and daughters Mattie and Ali join in on "'Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus." In the end, what began as a private bequest becomes a moving, eloquent gift to Jackson's entire audience. --Rich Kienzle

5 out of 5 stars You will love this album.......2007-06-27

This album by Alan Jackson is one of the most inspirational ones that I've ever purchased. The way Alan sings these classic hymns is timeless and touching. I've loved this album so much that I obtained copies for friends at church who have all said that I had no idea of how much they loved this album.

One thing that I will definately recommend to readers of this review- you MUST buy the companion DVD in which Alan Jackson performs these songs live at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. The DVD includes 2 songs that weren't shown on the CMT presentation. Alan really gets the joint jumping during the renditions of "Are You Washed in the Blood/I'll Fly Away" The DVD is available through this website. Please get it!

2 out of 5 stars Get Randy Travis instead.......2007-06-24

Not bad, but I still thought a lot of it was over-instrumentalized and some of the timing/tempo was awkward (too slow and/or had lost the rhythm). Randy Travis' _Worship & Faith_ is less melodramatic and easier to sing with.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful .......2007-06-21

This is the first CD that I have purchased of Alan Jackson. I love country/bluegrass/gospel music.

This is an exceptional CD. It offers a great selection of songs which are sung superbly with sincere warmth. It is one of those Cd's that you can listen to while you are relaxing or just doing your housework.

Please Alan, give us some more gospel recordings like this soon.

5 out of 5 stars Very well done.......2007-06-04

After growing up in church and serving as church pianist for over 20 years, I feel the need to express my disappointment that the hymns are not sung very much nowadays. Today's church song leaders and choir directors prefer to have their congregations sing praise and worship choruses instead of traditional hymns from the hymn book. I'm not even sure that most young people have even heard many, if any, hymns. Worse, many people who do sing hymns don't sing them the way they're traditionally supposed to be sung. I was very pleased, therefore, when Alan Jackson recorded this CD. I saw his concert on TV, and immediately thereafter ordered the CD. Alan Jackson sings the hymns the way they were sung in church when I was growing up... the way they're supposed to be sung. If you ask me, this is worship at its best.

5 out of 5 stars Precious Memories.......2007-05-25

Another great by Alan Jackson, really enjoyable
entertainer. A good DVD to listen to at home or
in the car.

This is really a nice CD to have if you ever need to put something on to help you relax and be at peace after a stressful day. He has always been underrated. His voice is fantastic. I couldnt give it 5 stars because I would have liked a couple more upbeat songs, or for that matter, more songs. There are only 10 on this CD. You get about 30 minutes of material and your just left with wanting more. Thats a compliment.

5 out of 5 stars Inspiring.......2006-04-27

My mother used to listen to BJ on LPs while I was growing up & I loved listening to his gospel albums. I, too, was fearful that this album would not "measure up" to the old LPs, but I was most definitely NOT disappointed. I love every song on this album - they are inspirational and uplifting. I also enjoy the newer songs that he sprinkled in amongst the older, traditional religious songs. Many of these remind me of my church-going years and of my grandmother, who had a few favorites that are included. This has turned into one of my favorite albums. Thank you, BJ!

5 out of 5 stars This is really the Best of BJ.......2003-02-03

No one can sing gospel like BJ Thomas! I own his "old" gospel albums and I was afraid this wouldn't live up to the quality -- but Praise God it does! I love the mix of old and new. BJ has his own style, his own natural quality-- and the voice of an angel. Thank you BJ!

5 out of 5 stars Inspirational, A Comfort.......1999-03-30

I had to have this album! I listened to the song "Home Where I Belong" years ago and it comforted me on the death of a loved one. I recently lost my son and once again the song was a comfort Thank You B.J.,

5 out of 5 stars For Nostalgia Purposes Only.......2007-04-03

I have Vol. 1 of the Live At Azusa, and it certainly takes me back to childhood in those "store front churches" that I started out at. However, many of these songs that we sang "back then" are not scriptually based. Most of these type of songs are called "feel good" songs, because, the writers wrote them based on how they felt, and not necessarily on their knowledge of the Word of God, and what God say's about what you are going through. Many people forget that, and when you tell them this, they get highly upset and an attitude. But you have to remember, our "ancestors" didn't read the bible; the slaves didn't know how to read, so, they had "church" based on how loud the drums were played and how it made them "move and feel" and the lyrics for many of these songs were based purely on how you felt, when the word of God tells us to Walk by Faith (the word), and not by sight (your feelings.) Again, based on how good Vol. 1 made me "feel" - if you are into nostalgic gospel, then, you will enjoy this Vol. 2 as well. But, remember, "Jesus himself said, "be careful how you hear." Meaning, be careful what you allow into your eargate, because, what you listen to, will affect your faith in a positive or negative way - Take heed therefore how ye hear (Luke 8:18)

I LOVE TO HEAR THE OLD ANOINTED SONGS BY THE OLD SAINTS. I FEEL THAT THESE SONGS HAVE A SPECIAL DELIVERANCE MESSAGE, AND I UNDERSTAND THE AZUSA STREET MISSION THAT BISHOP MASON CREATED THROUGH GOD'S VISION.

5 out of 5 stars The Best of the Azusa series.......2001-01-01

This is truly an amazing praise cd. This is the best out of the three Azusa series. C.Pearson is a uplifting singer...he goes and get songs that if you were only brought up Pentecostal...these are the songs that you can relate to.

M.C.Breedlove

5 out of 5 stars Revival on Disc.......2000-06-15

This is by far the best praise album I've ever heard! It should come with a disclaimer that warns against "Listening while Driving". This CD will have you shouting. It will literally bring you tears. Praise God for this outstanding work.
