Title: Live In Richmond, VA Artist: Brooklyn Allstars Label: 4 Winds Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 048021401727 Genre: Gospel
There's quite a bit of twilight reflection on the album. "Too Close" and "I Stood on the Banks of Jordan" suggest an acute awareness of the nearness of that awful day. Still, on "Just Look At Me Now," Spann celebrates that fact that, at eighty-something, he still has the health and energy to travel and perform. The single, "God Has Been So Good to Me," is a high-octane acknowledgement of He who makes such health and energy possible. Malaco's Darrell Luster makes an appearance on two selections, most notably the bluesy "I Can't Forget." Talented Ray Braswell Jr. Handles the production, keeping the singing and music well-balanced. Live in Richmond, Virginia is a sample of Brooklyn All Stars highlights with smooth, modern quartet flair.
