At the time, I chalked up the rave reviews to local pride. So when I met them at NQC 2007, and they gave me a copy of their hymns CD,I politely thanked them, and promptly put it in my stack of CDs to review . . . at the very bottom. It ended up being December 2007 before I got to that CD—and promptly gave it a five-star review (here).

In 2004, they recorded Timeless Treasured Hymns; I understand this became their best-selling album ever. They followed it in 2007 with Timeless Treasured Hymns 2, probably the only hymns project I have ever given a 5-star rating in a review (here).

Living on the West Coast as I do, I have had the opportunity to see the Liberty Quartet in person frequently. They are not only fine singers, but they are fine Christian gentlemen with an outstanding witness, and they remind me of my friends the Couriers in that respect. In addition, I feel that there is no bass singer traveling today who is better than Royce Mitchell. Royce not only shines on solos and blending in harmony, he is an outstanding arranger and manager. I hope your review spurs your readers to sample the Liberty Quartet for themselves. I'm confident that those who do will agree with me that they indeed are an excellent quartet.

Often when I'm at a concert, any certain group has had a personnal change since their latest recording. And if that concert was my introduction to the group, I usually won't know who's on the CD/tape. So it's good to hear that somebody finally has got the right idea by listing group info in the linear notes. It annoys me to no end when an album does not list the group members.
