Goodness knows why this powerful live set recorded at the Orebro Concert Hall, Sweden in 1976 never saw the light of day until now. For this is of more than historic interest, showing the American band, who in the '70s/early '80s were missionaries to Europe, very much at the top of their game. As well as long time band stalwarts Barry Bynum and Randy Hill you've got another Jesus music pioneer, Terry Clark, playing Fender Rhodes as a guest Lib Suiter while Brit Stephen Houston brings his considerable keyboard skills to give several of the songs here a distinct prog rock feel. My favourite cut is a relaxed piece of Texas blues "Don't Blame It On God" but Jesus music nostalgists will no doubt find their own choice cuts.
