Talk About Life

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
It's hard to go wrong with Talk About Life, the 1989 release that defined Kim Hill as one of Christian music's top artists. On it, she enjoys the backing of CCM's top producer, top session players, dynamite songs, and her distinctive Christie McVie-sounding voice. What's amazing (and perhaps saddening) is that the album still sounds fresh, more than a decade later. The catchy "Inside of You" and the melodramatic "Sneak in the Grass" capture the full range of Hill's deep vocals. But who would ever imagine hearing a Mellotron keyboard on "Stop, Watch and Listen," or the Elvis Presley-like rave "Let's Talk About Life" from a late 1980s album? The Beatlesque "Turning" confirms that Hill's musical roots lie in many areas. This musical potpourri, combined with earnest lyrics, makes for an enjoyable listen. --Michael T. Lyttle

A Rare 5-star Rating.......2000-07-10

I've been involved in Contemporary Christian Music for over 20 years. I have hundreds of Cd's. This is one of my favorites. Not only does it have the song power of such big-hitters as Wayne Kirkpatrick, Wes King and Tommy Sims, and the incredible production of Brown Bannister, but it is one of only TWO Kim Hill CD's (the other is my favorite- "Brave Heart")which TRULY capture this hugely talented artist's vocal abilities/interpretations. "Snake in the Grass" will take you through all of Kim's vocal textures, from tender timbres to gutsy, passionate declarations of the soul. One of Christian Music's finest vocalists.

Let's Talk About Kim Hill.......2000-07-08

There is much to say about Kim Hill's Cd talk about Life. The CD is the second release from Kim HIll. Talk About Life is a powerful follow up that is Sure to inspire your soul and move your feet. It contains several upbeat rockers such as Inside of You, Snakes in the Grass and of course the Title Track Talk About Life. These tracks are simple yet not boring. New believers, will find that these helpful as they take their first babysteps with the Lord, while vetran Christians will find them to be helpful reminders of old lessons. The track Testimony is a heart wrenching reminder of our Savior's faithfullness to us in our times of need. In short,Talk About Life, speaks to all Christians and is an invitation to speak His praises. Amen!
