I have been a Doyle Lawson fan since the "Rock My Soul" days and he has recorded a lot of great gospel recordings but this is THE BEST in my book, if you like Blugrass Gospel or Southern Gospel than this is a must have.

Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver has always been a great group. This particular recording is their best. It has a good mixture of songs and the harmonies are superb. I would highly recommend this album to bluegrass gospel lovers. They need to make an entire acapella bluegrass gospel album. Keep up the good work!

As a fan of Doyle Lawson from hearing him at the beginning of his career to the present, this is just another hit for Doyle and Quicksilver. Although some of the performers on this album are not with Doyle anymore, this is a remarkable group he has and it will go far. I see awards in the future for this group. The harmony of the group is awesome and soul stirring.

While playing and listening to this CD, I can't help but tremble and cry as their Heavenly voices touch and embrace my soul. My spirit has never experienced the nourishment and comfort that this CD has brought into my heart and soul. This CD is one every gospel lover world wide should have in their collection. River of Tears explains the many trials, tribulations, and pain we all experience as we are "Winding Through Life". "Just Let Me Fly" tells the story of a woman brought back to life by a doctor, then tearfully she immediately tells of her after life experience and asks the doctor "Why didn't you just let me fly with the angels?" What a heartbreaking, or to many, a heart warming song. All the other songs are also great pieces of work that this great band sent from Heaven has given us. The most angelic voices I can remember having ever brought such an inspiration to my heart to the extent that I can't wait to get to Heaven! GOD BLESS THESE INSPIRATIONAL CHILDREN OF THE LORD FOREVER!! I want to sing with Doyle Lawson in Heaven someday and for eternity.

I am a very loyal fan and devoted follower of Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver, but this CD was a mild disappointment. The songs all sounded "right off an assembly line" and lacked the uniqueness that I associate with DL&Q. The harmonies were great; the music good; and Barry Scott is sensational (does a lot of tenor leads). I just wasn't pleased with the selection of music that they chose for this CD. I wish I'd listened to it before buying it, but after all I figure I couldn't go wrong with Doyle Lawson; but alas, my first (of probably many)mistakes and ultimate disappointments in the field of music.

Doyle Lawson and his band of very talented musicians obviously visited the drug store before going to the studio to cut this CD. A more dreary set of gospel numbers I've never heard. This effort does not live up to this group's potential. Notwithstanding Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine's adulation of Mr. Lawson in a recent issue, he really needs to get back to bluegrass gospel basics and choose some more spirited arrangements. I wish I had my money back.
