Beautiful.......2007-06-14

This CD is a must have for any Mormon Tabernacle Choir fans. The music is very reverent and gentle, and should also appeal to those not from the LDS church, seeing as how most of the music is common to the wider Christian community. This CD is a fantastic addition to any music collection.

A few bright spots, but also some disappointments.......2007-01-19

It Is Well With My Soul is one of my favorite-favorites and that is the main reason why I bought the CD; it turned out to be a huge let down on this album, they rearranged it so much that I almost didn't recognize it. Be Still My Soul is another reason why I bought it and it's good, but not great. Swing Low Sweet Chariot is where it starts to get good. The last two songs "Thou Gracious God, Whose Mercy Lends"
and "Come, Let Us Anew" are very good reasons to buy this CD, they each have truely powerful passages and make the CD worth having. The Mormon Tabernacle Choirs 2006 release entitled Then Sings My Soul is by far the best that I've heard from them.

This CD Deserves SIX Stars!.......2005-11-05

However, the rating scale has a limit of five. I own over 700 CDs of virtually every type of music. Peace Like A River belongs in a class by itself! I've never written a review before but, after listening to this STUNNING performance by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, I feel compelled to share my praise with that of the five other reviewers. If I were limited to one word, I would use the word "SUPERB" to describe this beautiful and moving CD. SIX stars for Peace Like a River! BRAVO!!!

every good adjective .......2005-08-06

This album is all beauty and solace. The singing is pristine, the arrangements lush and often stirring--never saccharine. As with the previous reviewer, my first listing of "Peace Like a River" brought me to tears (especially "Peace Like a River," the sopranos in "Swing Low," and the bagpipes in "Thou Gracious God"). Buy this one.

Fabulous!.......2005-05-29

The perfect recording to help you recover from a long, hard day. Showcasing the MTC's "new" sound in contemporary choral arrangements with its own orchestra and conductor, "Peace Like a River" brought tears to my eyes in selection after selection during my first listen -- and I'm not normally an emotional person! The title song together with "Deep River," "Swing Low" and "Be Still My Soul" are alone worth the cost of the recording. Get this one!

Album Description

The latest release from Baillie & The Boys is a songwriter's showcase and a vocal delight. This 12 song collection, exploring the fragility and power of love relationships, takes us down a pathway of emotion. Few lead singers can deliver this type of material better than Kathie Baillie, whose ditinctive voice inhabits these songs with conviction and warmth. Baillie or husband Michael Bonagura, who produced the album, co-wrote seven of the songs on the CD.

The album conveys a feeling of intimacy and is tastefully arranged with a clean acoustic approach that demonstrates the simple power of a great song. Baillie & the Boys' trademark harmonies, subtle acoustic guitar, piano and bass unite with Baillie's rich lead vocals to deliver these songs with elegance.

Some of Nashville's leading songwriters are featured here and the lyrics and melodies wrap around each other seamlessly. "The Road That Led Me To You" is the sixth album from Baillie & The Boys and demonstrates why the group has four CMA award nominations as well as numerous hit singles. The understated acoustic approach on the CD only adds to the intimacy in this beautiful collection of songs.

Refreshing.......2000-10-08

When I first heard Baillie & the Boys in late 1987 I was immediately impressed by their polished sound and quality of their songs. Although at that time there were many class country acts, Baillie & The Boys stood out among them as being truly unique. A few years later the drought began with mostly unsubstantial singers and, to put it bluntly, songs that insulted the intelligence country music listeners. Unfortunately Baillie & the Boys became obscured by the masses of hype generated by musically ignorant "suits" whose only interest was to feather their own nests. Most people didn't know but Baillie & the Boys never stopped writing and making quality music. With the the release of "The Road That Led Me To You", fans and new listeners alike are treated to country music the way it should be; honest, intelligent without being vague and performed from the heart. This album tells of life, and is presented in a very intimate way. being produced by Michael Bonagura it is not clouded by someone who is on another wavelength, but by one who has been focussed on every song since it's beginning. Kathie Baillie's unique vocal style brings out the warmth in each song. Her ability to use her range and subtle Celtic lilt are a welcome return to expressive singing which has been hard to find in the last few years. The addition of the classic blend of Michael Bonagura's and Alan le Boef's vocals provide a very solid base and at the right times merge seamlessly to provide a wonderful chordal mix that is extremely rare. The acoustic nature of this album lends itself to an intimate session with the band, and at times evokes memories of Peter, Paul & Mary, of music which is heartfelt and has a message relevant to the times in which we live. This is indeed a timeless album. The message of the songs is pure country; life love, broken hearts, joyous times, all delivered by one of the best bands and songwriting teams that we can hope to experience in our lifetime.

Baillie And The Boys are better than ever.......2000-04-26

This is a group I've always loved. They soar, they sail and they take you right along with them. You will be singing every song with them before you've even listened through this album the first time. Kathie's heartbreakingly pure vocals are more angelic than they ever were, and there is this wonderful, heavenly thing that happens when "the boys" add their harmonies. This is a once in a lifetime sound from a one and only group, but as they have proven once again, they can make the magic happen time and time again. Do your heart a favor, and treat your self to this masterpiece of an album. You'll be glad you did. Juni Fisher, Nashville TN

My Ears Say "Thank You"!.......2000-03-29

I admit I have been a long-time fan, but for some reason,after the long hiatus from the last album, I almost forgot how good this group really is !This album is just superb,with Kathie's soaring,crying,caressing,and heart-healing lead vocals better than ever (Is there a more emotional and musically gifted singer in Nashville?--I dont think so.)Listen to "The Moment",an instant classic,and try not to get a chill. Listen to the harmonies from "the boys" on "Far Cry From Him" and tell me if any group, with the possible exception of The Eagles,can make them take flight into heaven like Baillie +the Boys can.And how 'bout the intimacy and sonic perfection of "Nobody Here To Love" ? As Billboard's reviewer said in the latest issue---"If there was any justice in the industry,this would be a platinum album". Pure and simple--if you love beautifully constructed songs, lush harmonies and an indescribably breathtaking female lead, you should check out this gem of an album!!!!

Sweeter than honey!.......2000-03-20

Just when you think that you've heard their best...here they come with one better! Even their old songs demand to be heard again. Kathies voice is stronger and sweeter than ever..when she sings "The Moment" she is really at her best! The harmony of Baillie and the Boys is outstanding!

Best CD I Own.......2000-03-20

Saw Baille and the Boys in Jackpot, Nevada and bought a pre-release copy of this CD in Sept '99. Every song on it is great. I listen to it nearly every day. My favorites are The Road That Led Me to You and Treat Me Like a Stranger. But I do like them all. You won't go wrong if you buy this cd.

A LUSH, TIME-LESS CHILLOUT CLASSIC.......2002-04-11

As a former admirer of The Drum Club and someone who greatly enjoyed Hammond's last foray into the genre of chillout - his 'Damage' collaboration with the multi-talented Roger Eno- it was with great anticipation I acquired a copy of thie album 'All This Is Bliss'.
Never has a title been more apt, this really is blissful! Beautiful, without being too head in the clouds, this album had classic written all over it.
First up there is the majestic and minimalistic 'Twilight Glitters', a short birst of horizontal delight. The second track 'Baby Piano' - where he collaborates with former Deacon Blue vocalist Lorraine Macintosh - is a stunning piece of music, haunting and ethereal it drags you in where you find yourself surrendering to its beauty and charm. It is apparent already Hammond is influenced much more by the likes of Eno and Budd as opposed to say Zero 7 and Lemon Jelly.
The contribution of the three stunning vocalists to this record cannot be underestimated: from Mackintosh's Liz Fraser type swoons to the angelic tones of A Man Called Adam vocalist Sally Rogers and the almost indie type swoons of Nina Walsh.
