Album Review
This much-hyped release featured the premiere of new bassist Robin Spurs. Many promotions, much press: magazine covers, major-label support, a video, radio spots. The Choir began to receive some of the attention they deserved. The sound is more dense than the previous year's Chase the Kangaroo, and in many ways more accessible. There still are a few songs ("Robin Had a Dream," "Car Etc.," "Happy Fool") that keep the whole project firmly in the "alternative" realm. Songs overall have a more sentimental angle than previous recordings, particularly "When She Sees Me" and "Wide-Eyed Wonder" — both songs about Hindalong's newborn baby. Saxman "Buckeye Dan" Michaels really shines on this one, notably on "Robin Had a Dream." A cover of George Harrison's "Behind That Locked Door" is surprising — and a little off-putting; it does not fit very well among the other songs. A great record. ~ Mark W. B. Allender, Rovi
Customer Reviews
Welcome to i-Tunes! Great addition to Choir collection...
Probably the most popular of the Choir's extensive releases, this album showed why the Choir is able to appeal to both Christian mainstream and alternative audiences. In fact, this album saw some acceptance by general audiences and college radio due to a great mixture of styles. Catchy songs Happy Fool, Wide-Eyed Wonder and Someone to Hold on To sound great and were the most popular off this release. The Car songs and Robin Had a Dream are equally appealing and offer a fun variety. Strong spiritual content, a great mix of sounds and styles and solid production make this one of the Choir's best releases. Glad to see it up on i-Tunes!
AMAZING
classic material. a MUST HAVE album for all "choir" fans.
What A Great Album!
I have three bands with all their songs in my iTunes. U2, King's X and The Choir. If some of your favorite albums include Rattle & Hum or Gretchen Goes To Nebraska you probably already have this album. If not buy it now and wonder how you missed this one.
