4/10 Reviewed by Stephen Luff
Croydon-based Ebow is a very talented musician playing all instruments on this CD (guitar, church organ and strings). Using this unusual mix, we are presented with 14 tracks of hymns and Ghana National College anthems. Ebow has clearly spent much time and effort on this disc including a trademark of the album title. The music lends itself more to personal worship with variations on well known hymns such as “Just As I Am” and “The Lord Is My Shepherd”, but not to prolonged listening, as I found it difficult to listen to throughout without losing track of the music. Ebow's talent deserves better than being used as background music.
