Radio Picks 02/24/03

Living Sacrifice - "Gonna Shout"

Wow, this one is something nifty and different. The intro is very 50’s Rock and Roll, so it surely gets your attention. Once they are into the song, it goes pretty well SG. Then the interlude gets you back into that neat 50’s feel. Add to all of this a great message to the song and a really big ending, and this one could really be a hit for them. TREAT your listeners to this one. This cut is well deserving of my "sleeper of the week" position. Zion Music Group - Compilation # 3 - cut # 6

Talley Trio - "I Love The Lord"

The Talleys do a great job on this soulful song written by Black Gospel Singer Richard Smallwood. They effectively capture the feel of this song. It’s very worshipful, and when they add the last chorus of the very worshipful "soulful" song, "Total Praise", it will lift you to the rafters. They do a great job on this one, and though I’m not sure it will chart very high, I believe that it will and should get a ton of airplay. Your listeners deserve to hear this musical blessing. Crossroad Airplay Sampler - March 2003 - cut # 1

Gaither Vocal Band - "Knowing You’ll Be There"

Grab a hanky and just enjoy this tear-jerker. Guy Penrod does a great job expressing the feeling of this song. It really is a "heaven" song with a message of hope in the reality of death. This song can be a real comfort to those who are going through the rough experience of losing a loved one. You need to play this one. This one may not chart very high either, but it will certainly bless a lot of hurting people in their time of need. Do you listeners a favor and play this one. Gaither Radio Series - Volume I - cut # 1

Best Of Friends - "Chains Gone, Set Free"

Grab your cowboy hat, because this one has a "country" flair to it, but it is really good. Featuring the trio of Karen Peck Gooch, singing the lead on this cut, Joyce Martin McCullough, and Sheri Easter, this lively number will probably do well on the charts. It will fit well into the Drive Time spots. Spring Hill Compilation Series - Volume # 1 - 2003 - cut # 1
