I first bought this as a discount cassette and later as a CD since I liked it so much. This is not some great musical masterpiece, but it is a compilation of several classic songs with traditional christian lyrics. This music is so good because George Jones was just good. I wouldn't say the song lyric content is very theologically deep, but it is enjoyable nonetheless. Personally, I doubt if ole possum is even a christian, even if he has recorded several christian albums.
I'd like to say that George Jones is, as always, impeccable on this album. His song selection is also very good. His backup, however, simply stinks.
Out of tune harmonies and bad piano playing plague this album.
While George does manage to redeem the album by his talents, I'd highly recommend buying his newer gospel album instead.
