Description
The self-titled and ninth studio album by the American vocal group First Call (Bonnie Keen and Marty McCall, the latter of Fireworks fame) was released on Warner Alliance in 1996, a gospel division of Warner Bros. Records. The album was produced by Cheryl Rogers (tracks 1 and 6 only) and Darrell Brown, with First Call co-producing. Also released featuring Spanish lyrics, entitled Comienza A Sanar.
In 1999, Bonnie Keen released her solo debut album, entitled Marked for Life.
This is one of those albums which reviewers dread to have to categorise under one particular music style. Although the album has a distinct pop feel to it. it makes nods at a variety of different musical genres. From the acappella «Sunrise On Arrant» (with vocal contribution from Take 6). to the soft, haunting ballad «Breath Of God» there is much variety. Adding to this is an exceptional range of musical instruments (including amongst other things the didgeridoo and Scottish bagpipes!). Along with the list of special guests, this album has outstanding musical qualities and is undoubtedly completely God centred. Every song tells a powerful message, the inspirational «I Find You» is one of the many songs which tell of God’s faithfulness and love. There are songs here to praise God with, songs to learn of his great love, power and much more. The message on this album is for everyone, regardless of musical taste and it is one we all need to be reminded of. [Jayne Butler, Cross Rhythms, April 1997]
