Live Worship From The Keswick Convention overflows with stirring hymns and heartfelt songs of worship expressing love and longing for a true and faithful God, it's a great way to sum up this album.
Worship Leaders Colin Webster, EMU Music and Olly Knight lead an inspiring selection of songs including "He Will Hold Me Fast", "Man Of Sorrows" and "The Longing Of My Soul".
In a world with so many live albums Keswick always seem to stand out. If you think about it, from a purely British perspective, we used to have live albums from Soul Survivor, Spring Harvest, New Wine,...

In a world with so many live albums Keswick always seem to stand out. If you think about it, from a purely British perspective, we used to have live albums from Soul Survivor, Spring Harvest, New Wine, and Keswick are always in that mix.
The driven ‘Fountain Of Goodness’ is a wonderful opener, I’ll always give credit where it’s due and I have to add that credit on this track it must be given to the bass and drums - there is some wonderful work going on here. Overall the album is full of strong qualities like these.
In comparison to some live albums, this live album as a whole has a more traditional worship sound to it, there are times where the main focus are the lyrics and nothing else. That really isn't a bad thing, and maybe it's missed by some albums in general with the noise of modern songs, but that's a whole different question. But with the quality being so brilliant you can not help but be drawn into how powerful some of these songs are. Olly and Colin have led this convention from a worship perspective so well and I'm sure if you attended this event or not, you will enjoy this album.
