Sal Solo is one of UK Christendom's unsung heroes. Unfailingly excellent in his songwriting and presentation, sadly underused in what he does best: proclaiming God's love and his plan of salvation and reminding people of the need to seek the Holy Spirit's indwelling presence. Over the years, people have told him that the music was more exciting live than on record - having seen him live, and seen the stunning visuals he uses, a concert is certainly a more complete experience. Thus we have a live album, recorded on Easter Saturday 1998 at Brondesbury Christian Centre. The songs will be familiar to those who have Sal's three albums 'Look At Christ', 'Through Ancient Eyes' and 'Born To Die', but the live context gives them an immediacy and impact that the studio recordings don't have. Sal reckons it's the Holy Spirit, not him! Considering it's live, the quality is excellent, Sal's programming skills and voice have never been better, particularly since he was healed of his sinus complaint, and this is not so much a concert, more a time of ministry. A very good example of what all those who've never had the Sal Solo Experience have missed.
