Dancity welcomes a new member

Mark has now offically joined the Dancity family and his love and experience of gospel music both from a business and musician prospective is a great a asset to the team. He will focus his effort on reviewing music. He has being a musician for a long time and has played and contributed to some of the UK's best selling Acts. We are very excited to have him as part of out team.
Check below his latest review of the new Vickie Winnas Album.



Artist: Vickie Winans
Album: Woman to Woman Songs of Life
Production: Zomba Recording

‘Winans’, ‘Hawkins’ and ‘Crouch’ are like brand names – with gospel heritage and guaranteed quality attached to whatever they produce. And Vickie Winans is as seasoned a singer and minister as the more popular Winans or BeBe and CeCe. W2WSoL is a double CD (1½ studio, ½ live) appearing to be aimed at a wide Christian audience; the artwork oozes class with Mrs Winans in a Cinderella frock unsuitable for rush-hour commuting! More importantly there’s a range of music styles so there’s something for everyone, so to speak.

Positives; CD1 carries the product. ‘Madly In Love’, ‘God Of Comfort’, ‘Watch The Wind’ stand out. The best track is ‘Dance With Me’ – stick it on repeat and eat motorway miles (or freeway kilometers) with a smile.

Negatives; two tributes to mom on one CD! Great for mom but not for us. I don’t think that ‘Go Go Praise’ goes with the flow of the album. Also there’s no real need to hear another rendition of ‘Joyful Joyful’ or ‘Jesus Loves Me’.

Double albums face the challenge of maintaining a high level of quality and cohesion for twice as many tracks. I’m not sure W2WSoL does so; the songs do not sit well together as it aims to satisfy seasoned gospel heads and contemporary Christian followers together. W2WSoL is a bit of a pick’n’mix – fine as a whole but most will find themselves pressing the ‘skip’ button to head for their favourite tracks.

Rating: 4/5
