3.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for any true Amy-phile., February 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Amy Grant (Audio CD)

As first albums go for 16 year old country girls who were never seeking stardom in the first place, this one stands at the top of a very small hill. Who would have guessed that this little girl would climb through the music community with roughly an album a year for the next twenty years of her life? This initial release, while inconspicuous at first glance, can't help but express the simple honesty of a voice that many would eventually find to be as comfortable as their living room easy chair. Amy glides through each song as though skating around her own block, causing us to smile with her as she enjoys the wind in her hair. She offers with sincerity her songs that have a message, most notably Mountain Top and What A Difference You've Made. But she also bares her soul to us unashamedly in revealing personal tunes such as Walking In The Light and The Lord Has A Will, many of which she wrote herself. Still, the production values don't venture out far from standard studio practices, which is to be expected on such an early effort for a young singer. Neither are there any surprises from Amy, herself. Nonetheless, this album serves as a good ramp into a career that has consistently matured and brought joy to millions of eager listners. Not bad for a country girl. Not bad at all.

5.0 out of 5 stars awesome amy!, April 16, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Amy Grant (Audio CD)

Amy's first Album, simply titled "Amy Grant" is so beatuiful. It truely captures the simplicity of a faith of a young person. Her vocals are that of a 17 year old,who in 1977, expressed how she felt through song. I really enjoy this album, Amy is also given a chance to display her PHENOMINAL (but early) songwriting skills on this album,as a few songs such as my favorite "Walking in the Light" display Amy's perspecive of a simply true and strong love for our Creator. Amy Grant has grown so much since this early recording- it's a great glimpse at the early work of chirstian music's ledgend!

3.0 out of 5 stars Her 1978 debut., February 12, 2004

By 

John Sposato (Syracuse, NY, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Amy Grant (Audio CD)

This was her first album, released early 1978 by Myrrh/Word Records, then on the secular market by A&M in 1984, and 1993 by RCA. She was still in high school when she cut this album. Most of the songs have some naivete, which gave her comparisons to Debby Boone and Evie, the cross-over sensations of the moment. Some could be put on children's Christian compilation LPs. Her voice even sounded different. If you're only into her pop material, this may not be for you.
