The Simplicities and Complexities of Faith,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: For the Living of These Days (Audio CD)
Kate Campbell once again has delivered a product that her fans will love and newcomers to her sound will find intimate. Her unpretentious voice always catches me off guard. This album has some well-known hymns, some less-well-known songs about faith and some original work by Kate. As soon as you think the arrangements are ordinary, she changes it up a little, like she does in God of Grace and God of Glory. My favorite piece is her rendition of There Is A Balm In Gilead. Her un-hurried delivery gives this glorious song a soulful, knowing sound that truly is a balm to the listener's ears.

Hauntingly Beautiful,
By Rev. Jonathan Glass Riley (Lakewood, OH) - See all my reviews
This review is from: For the Living of These Days (Audio CD)
Having just heard Kate Campbell sing live in Washington, DC, I ordered up four of her CDs, including her latest - "For the Living of These Days."
And I must say this newest offering is astounding in is beauty, depth, musicianship and complexity. Campbell and Oldham (re)weave a thicket of old threads into lustrous tapestries of new strength and beauty... Honestly, this is music which stands upon multiple thresholds: Between tradition and innovation... Between joy and pain... Between questions and assurance... Between Heaven and Earth. Wherever you find yourself in your Christian walk of faith: Treat yourself to the comforting challenge of these words, this music!

I'm entranced by all of Kate Campbell
's cds. I hope that you'll sample all of them and love them as much as I do. She has a great voice - her writing matches her voice. I'm from Alabama originally - Kate really speaks to me.

You need something like this, but maybe not this,

This review is from: For the Living of These Days (Audio CD)
Nothing new here, but a lot of people would say, "Hey, there's not supposed to be anything new about God." These are traditional spirituals, samey, with that wheezy organ and fervent insistence on faith and humility. It's big on that most important feature of spiritual records -- Sincerity. It hits the other points on the genre's checklist with just a hint of Southern Baptist Grandma's country twang. It's pretty. Ms. Campbell's voice is nice and her timing is impeccable. A well-rounded CD collection includes this kind of music, and here it is
