I am a big fan of singers like Paul Rodgers, Rod stewart, Frankie Miller and Steve Marriott and now comes Glenn Kaiser. This man has a great voice. I bought this c.d not knowing anything about this singer. The last two weeks I have listent only to this one c.d. I dont think there is one bad song in the entire c.d. However the song, the crossing really stands out. The voice and the lead guitar-great stuff. It reminds one of Gary
Moore's still got the blues. Another song, long way from home needs to be mentioned. Good acoustic guitar work, beautiful tune and a great voice. All I can say is AMEN.

Mr. Kaiser has defined Christian blues. His gravelly voice and intense guitar style set him apart. This collection of several of his songs from the old Rez Band days as well as later blues-only days are all great samples of his talent. He has an uncanny ability to speak deepest recesses of the heart brining us to accept our Father's great love in the midst of our frail and oftentimes hurting human condition. He draws us away from depression and toward worship with every song. His tunes can still make me dance and worship even in my darkest moods.

For fans of guitar driven blues and christian music, Glenn Kaiser has given us both. The former frontman for 70' and 80's christian rockers the Rez band has put together a compilation of blues tunes from Rez, Kaiser/Mansfield, and his solo projects.

From the country/blues of "Great Change", the slow sizzler "Where Roses Grow" or the straight ahead electric blues of "Everybody Understands the Blues" there is not a loser from start to finish. Make sure to check out the gospel choir inspired call and response on "My Jesus is All".This is a blues album that will make you happy!

By the Lord's hand, Glenn has done it again! I received the BLUES HEAVEN CD as a birthday present in February 2001 from my sis-in-law. After listening to this CD the first time, I thought, *Why did I wait so long to get it? Silly me!*

These beautiful songs come from the many albums that Glenn has done previously. The following songs: The Return, Raindance, Slow Burn, Where Roses Grow, Spontaneous Combustion, My Jesus Is All....oh gee, the WHOLE album, strikes a major chord within my heart! One can't just sit there quietly, while listening to this CD.

The gift of writing/playing, that the Lord has blessed Glenn with, is an awesome thing. The lyrics that he has written, are so powerful. No bubblegum here! The Lord always ministers to my heart as I listen to this CD.

The guitar licks are very excellent. I love those techniques! Glenn is not afraid to dig in and play from his heart, as well as singing from his heart too.

My love for blues is growing more and more as I spend time listening to this CD, in which I am learning how to play on my guitar! If you have not given this CD a listen to, do so quickly! You will be bllluuuueeessed!

Thank you Glenn for sharing your faithfull witness in life and in song!
