Rumours of Angels and
The Gift
CD Review by Ross Flint
This is a double CD presentation, the second disk being a
re-release.
Rumours of Angels is more for listening to than
singing along with. Being a Kendrick fan from way-back, this
is again to his usual high standard, with brilliant lyrics.
The album is worthwhile purchasing just for one song -
Thorns in the Straw:
And did she see there
In the straw by his head a thorn
And did she smell myrrh
In the air on that starry night
And did she hear angels sing
Not so far away
Till at last the sun rose blood-red
In the morning sky.
The Gift is a re-release of an album that contains
some excellent songs for your congregation to sing at the
Christmas season. It is an interesting album in that it has
such a diverse assortment of musical styles, including the
fact that it is produced in the form of a musical.
Great gift - for family, friends or just for
yourself.
