This is a good set of CDs. This is Lamb's first three albums on two CDs. I've owned the vinyl albums for many years now. The vinyl didn't seem to have good dynamics. They've really cleaned up the production for these CDs.

With respect to the music, its good listening. As I remember the primary members are Jews who accepted Christ into their lives. This gives them a slightly different perspective than most Christians, and it shows in their songs. Refreshing. Some of their songs are in english, some in hebrew. Very melodic. Good hooks. Accoustic guitar, piano, nice harmonies. They remind me of 70's folk rock, sometimes Klezemer.

Though these CDs are good, their best work was a 2 record live album that contained many of these songs. Great sound. Lots of energy and joy. Sadly, I don't think its out on CD yet. I'm looking for my old vinyl copy so I can capture the full title and copyright date.

I grew up with the music and used to listen to them on a tape deck. I'm very glad they're available on CD. They have great sound and the mix of English and Hebrew is artistic genius.

This obscure, underrated, group is basiacally one man. Lamb consists of Joel Chernoff (all vocals, songwriting, and arranging) and a friend of his producing, and filling in on a few instuments, and also prayers.

This is some of the most spritually mature, annointed, and mystical musical you'll ever hear. Depth is something that is often lacking in 'Christian' music these days. Many Christians find that, while they enjoy the 'spirit and praise' of Christian songs and hymns, they usually prefer secualar music for quality and listenability and authenticity. Not the case here. Lamb in general and Lamb 3 in particular, is a music with soul and depth and breadth of feeling and meaning, the lyrics and music ushering the listener into the presence of God that is at once real and accessable, in the most profound and emotionally sublime sense.

If you have deep relationship with God or Life or Self, give this a try, and you will undoubtedly moved by its honest and ever-meaningful spirit.
God himself can be heard within these sounds...

I first heard Lamb in 1974. My adopted mom bought Lamb I. I loved from the start. I'd memorized every song as we played it morning, noon and night for nearly 3 months. We anxiously awaited parts II and III. One day as I was browsing through Amazon.com music collection I saw I, II and III and wondered if it were what I thought it was. Yeah, it was them. So, I ordered it. It is sounds just at if it had come out as a new hit album today. I highly recommend this to anyone who has not heard the "Good News" expressed in this way. It's away of reaching members of the Jewish faith whom believe Jesus Christ is the Savior who was born as a Jew. I recommend that you listen to it. I think better yet buy it, find a comfortable place to sit quietly and listen then listen with your eyes closed that way you hear the words. The second time listen to it as you read the words. It tells its own story of Jesus. Oh, by the way, the Hebrew language does not have the letter "J". Therefore, Jesus is the English name as King James had decided to have translated. It's Yeshua. Just listen and decide for yourself. If you still don't like it. Put it on a shelf or give it away. I don't think you'll do that. I listen to it everyday! No joke. Every time I hear it I just can't describe the Awesomeness of Yeshua (if that's a word) and of how as a person who was part of a group am now "graphed in" by coming to the knowledge of the truth.

Watch out for all the glowing reviews, especially if you are younger. I have had people who have listened to my Lamb II (the liveliest of the 3) and said, "No thanks, a little too Jewish for me". For the most part Lamb shines in the ballads. The words are mostly straight from scripture, so there is no wondering whether or not the interpretation is correct. At the time these albums were first released, they were one of the most progressive Christian groups, breaking new ground, but in a gentle way. I used to listen to these albums when I was younger to re-align my bearings in my troubled thoughts. All in all, a great way to have 3 albums on 2 CDs. NOTE: Jewish flavor messianic music. If you want a harder rock sound, then check out Dancing In Jerusalem or Seer. Year of Jubilee is similar to Lamb I, II, III.

Lamb was the best Messianic band out there, and the tunes on these cd's are timesless. Joel Chernoff is a master at capturing the heart and spirit of a Jew who has found his messiah, and expressing it in music. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for great worship music.

I agree with the previous reviews. I have owned the vinal versions for 30+ years and I never get tired of hearing these awesome, God-inspired songs. They are very Jewish and very Jesus! After studying Israel history many years and taking a trip to Israel, I appreciate them even more. I don't see how Messianic music could be any better.

Perhaps the most wonderful thing about listening to Lamb on this CD package is that it contains the earliest and sweetest tunes which they first recorded. Sitting and listening to their LP over thirty-five years ago and now hearing the same material on CD is the same awesome thrill, but with better fidelity.

I'm so glad I found this collection. It remains me of those early years of my walk with Jesus...I miss that first love that I`m afraid I've lost

This was a gift for a friend. He was very happy to have recieved it. He had been looking for this for a long time,
