The
Difference
Artist: Rescue Label: Rescue Ministries 10/35:09 Like Glad, Rockapella, or Take 6, Rescue has chosen to let their voices be the instruments on The Difference. Also like the aforementioned groups, it becomes apparent midway through the first song that serious vocal talent is required in abundance to pull this off successfully. Luckily, Rescue meets this requirement without a problem. The music is pretty much standard CCM fare, but the quality of the vocals overshadows that, for the most part. The title track illustrates this, accompanied by Jason Overstreet and Steve Maxwell’s vocal percussion, which reminds the listener of Bobby McFerrin: How did Daniel face the lions?“Darkest Hour” is a plea from one who cannot hear God’s voice or see His face, yet knows He is there. It is a picture of the frustration anyone feels when they feel their prayers are falling on deaf ears. “So Subtly” reminds us that God is in the quiet places as well, not just in the public miracles we see every day. In all, The Difference holds up well. While not my style of choice, I enjoyed listening to it and the talents of the performers, who do this well. Fans of Acapella or most adult contemporary music will enjoy this as well. Brian A. Smith 27 July 2003
