...went to iTunes... listened to samples of every cut.
Hated it.
It’s melancholy and is not the style I’d like to hear from him.
I won’t be adding it to my collection.

But I WILL go listen to the “Slow Train Comin’” album again...and again!

One of my regrets is that not one of the tracks from that album ever really caught on in the Christian world. "When He Returns" was covered by John Lee Sanders a few years back, but it should be a standard solo piece in worship, just as "Gonna Change My Way of Thinking" and "Gotta Serve Somebody" should have been covered by at least a dozen Christian groups in a dozen different formats and styles by now. Maybe a new generation will rediscover it, the way Mendelssohn rediscovered Bach or the Coen bothers rediscovered bluegrass gospel.
