A beautiful, quiet CD. It is calming, spiritual, and intelligent, even for the non-Christian.

2.0 out of 5 stars Traditional Gospel, but a bit sloppy, May 25, 2004

This CD was recorded in 1996 and is closer to his Gospel Favorites CD in style than it is to his excellent The Troublemaker CD. The production is very simple, piano, guitar, organ, and Willie's voice. Willie's voice is starting to show his age and the guitar work seems a little sloppy in places. Even though some of the songs can be found on other CDs, these are all new performances and not just re-issues of older material. It is an ok CD but out of his 4 Gospel CD's, (The Troublemaker, Gospel Favorites, and Old Time Religion) this is the weakest one. I would recommend any of those CDs before this one.

I LOVE this CD. The guitar and Bobbie's wonderful touch on the piano (she has a light touch and doesn't overpower Willie's voice) make beautiful music. Willie's voice, words, and guitar make me feel like he is in the room singing. My father (not with me anymore) used to sing "How Great Thou Art" in the church choir and my mother played the piano. I couldn't think of anyone that I would want to hear sing "my father's song" except Willie. I listen to it most every night as I go to sleep. Beautiful old songs that we don't hear often and recorded so clearly. I just can't say enough about it!!!
