THOUGHTS:
The Christian faith is a part of the very foundation of this nation and what we call freedom. We are free in Christ! This message is something that Scott Fowler and Legacy Five share everywhere they go. In addition to sharing the Patriot's Bible, the group released a CD featuring some great songs of faith and patriotism. New pianist Josh Townsend shines on the Patriotic Medley and the Tribute To The Troops. Townsend's vocal ability is also showcased with his feature on "God's Been Good." This song has special meaning for the young pianist. He has experienced many health issues, but through it all God has been good. The quartet revists several previously recorded songs including; "The Star Spangled Banner," "Freedom," "Hallelujah Chorus," "It's Still The Cross," and the above mentioned "God's Been Good." Josh Feemster and Scott Howard shine on the popular patriotic anthem "God Bless The USA," which proclaims: "I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free." My favorite track on this album is "Arlington," which features the smooth bass voice of Matt Fouch. Fouch does this Trace Adkins classic justice. This beautiful song tells the story of a soldier being buried at Arlington National Cemetery and reminds us of the sacrifice to keep us free.
Overall, this is a well crafted and timely CD. With all the craziness happening in the country and the world, it is important to remember that the Cross paid the way for our FREEDOM. He has been good in our lives and no matter what the circumstance, we are blessed to be living where we live.
4.5 out of 5 stars!
