Alabama Album: “Songs of Inspiration”
 Description :
Alabama: Jeff Cook, Randy Owen, Teddy Gentry (vocals).
<p>On their first full-length album devoted entirely to gospel music, country superstars Alabama stick to their familiar sound. Combining a handful of originals and new songs with a selection of beloved standard hymns, the band also makes room for the children's song "Jesus Loves Me," the Christmas carol "Silent Night," and, oddly, Red Foley's dead-dog weepie "Old Shep." SONGS OF INSPIRATION also features a duet with Dr. Ralph Stanley on his own "I Am the Man Thomas."

- Beautiful Music
This is a wonderful and very inspirational album. Randy Owen's voice sounds great, even majestic. The songs are great memories for me. The songs are sung the way Randy likely heard them sung growing up in rural Alabama in the 1950's, with soul, spirit, and feeling. The emphasis is on the words and the meaning of the words. There is a minimum of "arrangement" - if your looking for modern Christian rock or even over-arranged horns, you're looking in the wrong place. Tremendous song choices, although I would have liked to have heard Fly Away. Great emotion and a collection I'm listening to over and over. A must have. The song Rain is Randy's original and is tremendous- should be on Radio.

- God honoring
This album is very good. There is one song however that sounds like it could promote universal salvation. I could be mistaken about this. Any Christian knows(and would not lead others astray) that Jesus is the only way to God the Father. He is the only way to heaven! You cannot get there by being a good person. God gave his Son as the punishment for our sins. We have to accept him as the payment for our sin. If we try to face God outside of Christ, we will face God's judgement. God gave us the free gift of salvation, it's a shame that most people will refuse His grace, and take His judgement instead. All glory to God, and the Lord Jesus Christ!

This is a great CD. My father just passed away and we played some of the music at his funeral.

These are long time favorites of mine and the album is one I listen to often. It is done well and I was pleased to have found it at Amazon. If you like old time hymns, this is the album for you. The shipping and packing were very good and delivery was quick.
