Free Music Notes for The Gospel Truth
Free Music Review: The whole truth and nothing but
Hit: 4 Stars
This is a great CD! Good vocals, good instrumentation, and great writing. Susan Werner takes on all comers - phony evangelists, exclusionary fundamentalism, and the boys club mentality of the Catholic Church. When she is not lambasting theocrats, she is expressing the contradiction and confusion experienced by those trying to make "sense" of spirituality and theological concerns. "our father" by itself is worth the price of the CD.Free Music Review: The Gospel Truth
Hit: 5 Stars
Beautiful lady, smooth voice, good compositions. Commentary on religion, such as "How Can I Love One who Hates Me?" My family and my church choir members have just about worn out my copy and many have ordered their own.Free Music Review: Made You Think!
Hit: 5 Stars
Susan uses the gospel style to explore her thoughts on religion. She reflects the experiences of many people her age. "You ask too many questions, dear. No, I think you ask too few." This is a dialogue from one of the songs, and gets at the root of discontent with traditional faith. Yet, the gospel style is so upbeat that you can't help but feel optimistic about the whole process.Free Music Review: Tuneful and Challenging Gospel
Hit: 4 Stars
Susan Werner wants the listener to ask "why" as well as "how" to worship. She assumes the stance of a skeptic who has come home to the church but is aware of why she once left it, or thought of leaving it. The music is varied, some songs with a gospel beat and others with more of a folk sensibility. I related to Werner, but I know my devout wife did not.Free Music Review: TRUE Gospel music!
Hit: 5 Stars
These lyrics speak to the True Gospel Message of love, acceptance and forgiveness. Ms Werner touched my heart with "help somebody" and "did trouble me", stimulated my thoughts with "heaven so small", "our father" and "don't explain it away", and pumped up my joy level "i will have my portion"! Every cut is worth relistening, thinking, sharing and discussing! Agnostic Gospel or Not, I say "Amen, Sister!!"
