The Imperials - Til He Comes

By M. Hunter (Springfield, Ohio United States)
I was a little skeptical when I saw this CD. I haven't bought any Imperials since the days of "Heed the Call" and I wasn't sure what they would sound like sans Russ Taff. But talk about a pleasant surprise! The sound so many of us remember from our teen years is still there--plus!

Most of all, I enjoyed the variety of sounds on the CD. There's everything from a soulful, R&B style "Say So," to the rich, harmonies and full, strong cadences of the ballad style "We Believe." Every track on this CD is an instant favorite. 4.999 stars!

Those who have been fans of the Imperials for quite sometime will enjoy this CD. The vocals will remind some of the "One More Song For You" and "Priority" days though the production is not quite as "slick". The tracks for the recording are extremely well done mixing a good balance of sequenced material and "live" players. Two of the hottest session players in the business, not to mention two old Imperials alumni, Tom Hemby and Mark Douthit return to provide the guitar and sax overdubs respectively.

If you have not purchased or even heard this CD, it would be well worth your money to do so. My favorites include "Place of Grace", "Lord Of The Ages", "Showers of Love" and "Blessed Are The Broken." Enjoy!...
