About this item

Amazon.com Hopes were higher for the first all-gospel release by Del McCoury, perhaps the finest singer in bluegrass, whose a cappella "Get Down on Your Knees and Pray" has long been a show-stopping highlight of his live performances. Though the album showcases McCoury's keening tenor and the virtuosity of his band, the results fall short of divine inspiration. Most of the material tends toward the obscure; whatever the spiritual message, some of the music simply isn't as compelling as the range McCoury typically offers on his secular releases. Among the highlights are the bluesy retelling of David and Goliath on "Five Flat Rocks," the stately grace of a musical eulogy on "We Know Where He Is," and the call-and-response harmonies of "Gold Under My Feet." At his most moving, McCoury can send a spiritual jolt through the spine of an atheist; on Promised Land, he's mainly preaching to the choir. --Don McLeese Product Description Grammy Award winning Bluegrass band the Del McCoury Band returns with their very first all gospel album, PROMISE LAND. Features the tracks "Five Flat Rocks," "The Lord Is Writing Down Names" and "Canaan's Happy Land."
