5.0 out of 5 stars Of my collection, my third favorite!, May 10, 2000

Brother to Brother is a great album by two of the most honest Christian recording artists of recent years. This is filled with sincere, intense imagery with a style all its own, powerful more because of its truth than because of its already-excellent playing. Other than Rich Mullins Songs and Liturgy, Legacy, Ragamuffin, this CD spends the most time in my player. I often listen to it on Sunday mornings before leaving for church, or evenings when I'm doing my homework.

Anyone who enjoys folk-driven hymns or thought-provoking lyrics rather than some of the fluff other artists are releasing will definitely enjoy this album. I would say it is a must-have album for anyone who buys Christian music in order to feel worshipful or convicted; this CD draws you in and then sends you out rejoicing!

Shalom!

I am a long-time fan of John Michael Talbot, and have always enjoyed Michael Card's music as well. I play the music from this CD more than any other music I own -- and I own a good amount of Christian music! In addition, I have bought over 30 copies for our Catholic men's fellowship organization to give out as gifts to our guest speakers -- which makes it our leading gift to give! The music is very uplifting, and the joy and strength in spirit is truly evident. Talbot and Card even SOUND like brothers! I was also glad to see further collaborative efforts of Phil Keaggy, who added his guitar expertise to the production. These are songs for Christians of all persuasions to do what the Lord enjoins of us in Psalm 133 (which is imprinted on the CD cover): "Behold! How good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity!" (For us Catholics, this unity is in accord with the documents of Vatican II -- to ease the concerns aroused by an earlier reviewer!) An excellent CD choice!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Glimmer of Heaven's Chorus, November 1, 2000

By A Customer

I have been familiar with Brother Talbot's music for some time, but this was my first solid aquaintance with Michael Card. What a wonderful sound in these duets! The music fan who speaks of basic differences in Catholic and Protestant doctrines is correct in what he says, but the fact is, we are called to reach out to all the brothers and sisters for whom Christ died. Seek out whatever is good and beautiful, Paul said, because he knew that God is the source of all beauty. This music is outstanding and often beautiful, perhaps even a tiny glimmer of what the chorus of angels and saints is like! We should allow ourselves to enjoy the gifts of God in others without expecting them to be what we (or even God) want them to be. Trust in the Lord to work out the rest!
