For 25 years, Randy Stonehill has been acknowledged as a Jesus music pioneer. He and his close friend Phil Keaggy (one of the most skilled guitarists you will ever hear - Christian or secular and that's a cold, hard fact) decided to get together for a little musical shindig, and here is the recording of such. Stonehill's well-oiled and soothingly hushed vocal is at its vintage finest. Keaggy's guitar playing is as phenomenal as ever, worth the money alone. The perfect combination resembling something near to a roots Dave Gilmor concert, the songs are timeless while the repartee is nothing short of hilarious. Two blokes, two guitars, one mic, and considerably more than their fair share of talent - as if it would ever be anything other than fantastic.
