Well, I thought about it, and the answer would be… no. I still listen to all my other albums, but at the beginning, this album stuck out. There are a few others that did the same (CQ-Radio Days, GC-Signed Sealed Delivered, BFA-Lovin’ This Livin’ For The Lord, KQ-Proven Time & Time Again) when it comes to grabbing my attention for ‘ear’play. But Revival just kept pressing as a favorite!

Matt, could that be in part because they’ve taken their time about recording another project (of new songs)?

QN, “Revival” is a lot better in pace, and better quality than “Heaven”. I like it better than “First Class” as well. This album is great when you’re in the car driving. I believe it’s one of the best they’ve put out in a while. I play it constantly. I don’t believe I’ve played a specific album this much since “Standing In The Gap” (my all-time favorite).

“Kinda broke the mold” is putting it very mildly. I’ve only listened “Revival” on purpose twice. Other GCQ recordings I’ve worn out.

Well, I found one error. “Tenor Josh Simpson, 23, already has been with the group nearly two years.” Steve Ladd is the tenor, Josh Simpson is the pianist!
Other than that, it’s a great article.
Daniel Riley mentioned that they have “fallen back to a style more similar to the early days”. I’m hoping that this falls in line with the rumor of them soon to be recording a “Classics Volume 2″!
