Incredible!, October 28, 2000
This review is from: Rescue (Audio CD)
This album was my first introduction to this group - and Keith Lancaster. I bought it about ten years ago, without ever having heard a note from the group, and it was the best investment I ever made. The title track alone - RESCUE - will justify the cost of this CD.
By my best guess, there are as many as 12 or 13 distinct vocal parts on any song on the album. Not only is the music precision-tuned with incredible harmonies and a great variety of vocal parts, but the message in each and every song rings greater than any of the chords. I have been humbled and comforted over and over by this album.
The music and words of this CD started me on a journey. I am still finding my way along the path. But at every crossroad, every corner, and every impass along the way, all I have had to do is remember:
Lord, you know everything I've done Every thoughtless word, you know every one And Lord, you give, not what I am due but mercy....you come to my rescue...
Every hair on my arms rises, and I get a wave of chills every time those words come to mind. They have comforted me in bad times. They have humbled me when I've been too bold. And they have reminded me that when life's entanglements get too big for me, there is only one place to turn.
You will not be sorry for buying this CD.

Amazing Album, September 12, 2009
I can not say enough about this group. This was the first christian group that i really listened to when I was growing up and it transformed my life. My cousins and I used to sing to these songs for hours and often when the music was not on. I lost this cd years ago and didn't bother to look for it till now. I started listening to the previews before i bought it wanting to know whether i really wanted it or not and started tearing up over most of the songs as the holy spirit was working in me. Needless to say that I have the album in my ipod now and love it. The songs might not effect you quite like it did me but still a must have in your ipod for christians and non christians alike!!! God Bless.

Fantastic vocals. Superb gospel message throughout. Whether you're of the conservative or contemporary leaning, all can enjoy. Lots of fun listening. Highly recommend all of the Acappella series.
