Hit: 5 Stars
We enjoy Needham's music very much....very uplifting, a great testimony, and he has many different capabilities, but I especially like the bluesy sound he brings to contemporary Christian music. Exceptional listening pleasure!Free Music Review: What a find this is!
Hit: 5 Stars
Found out about Jimmy after he opened for Natalie Grant. Ended up buying Speak and pre-ordering his new one due out 8/08. He performed several songs from this with just an acoustic guitar, and what incredible energy he has! This CD is faithful to that talent, displaying a variety of tempos and styles, held together with an honest, fresh Gospel message presented in a relevant, contemporary way. Can't go wrong with this one.Free Music Review: What a great find!

Jimmy Needham is a wonder--his lyrics are amazing. Unflinchingly straightforward yet intensely compassionate. He's quite the poet, polished yet real and straight from the heart.
I used to consider myself a decent singer until I listened to Jimmy; I CANNOT keep up with him! Keep raising the bar, J, we're loving it!
Free Music Review: A Wonderful Surprise
Hit: 5 Stars
I stumbled across Jimmy Needham as I was browsing through a christian music site. He is indeed a wonderful surprise. Strong lyrics. Strong voice. Love the music. I compare him to my pastor, who is a man of God, preaching the Word without apology. Jimmy does this in his songs. I'm buying two more of his albums to give as gifts.Free Music Review: Jazzy Vocals Paired With Sometimes Acoustic/Sometimes Electric Rock/Pop....
Hit: 5 Stars
Now this is different! SPEAK is a fun, hip, and uplifting album with a serious message that pierces poetically rather than in your face. No weak songs in the bunch.:
1. "I Am New" - jazzy, swinging celebration with acoustic guitar, harmonica, cello, drums
2. "Lost at Sea" - electric and rocking, yet with the jazzy vocals, both spoken and in melody with the occasional surprise high note
3. "Fence Riders" - yet another song to dance to: "...Can I sing about your maker and have you not roll your eyes...I know it don't make sense to those who ride the fence/But I'm sold out to Christ..."
4. "Dearly Loved" - the first slow song, and a WOW of one at that as somehow Needham manages to exhort us to leave sin in a ballad that comes off as pure horizontal love rather than condemnation: "...It's worth it brothers and it's worth it friends..." (strings, acoustic guitar)
5. "For Freedom" - more great poetry and modern jazz
6. "Speak" - no jazz here, this title cut conveys a powerful message on the Great Commission (electic and acoustic)
7. "You Make Me Sing" - another upbeat tune
8. "Wake Up" - a call to service and abundant living
9. "Regardless" - about choosing obedience thru lyrics based on the trials of Job and Daniel's fiery furnace (electirc)
10. "Stand on Grace" - slow and simple
11. "The Gospel" - slow acoustic
12. "Benediction" - Whoa, what a conclusion: no music; just bold, rhythmic spoken word; powerful poem to evoke repentance and trust.
Enjoy, this is a fun CD. (Also, lyrics are scripturally sound with verse citations on liner notes to give background to each song.)
