A Night in Rocketown

Description

A Night in Rocketown, sub-titled Rocketown’s Greatest Hits Live, is a multi-artist live album released on Rocketown Records in 1999, manufactured and distributed by Word Music Group. The album was recorded May 7, 1999 by Tom Laune at the Hard Rock Live Theatre in Orlando, Florida; with Don Donahue and Laune producing. Mixed by Laune.

Recorded at the Hard Rock theatre in Orlando to a sell-out crowd of 2000, this is an energetic showcase for Rocketown Records. Watermark kick off the pro­ceedings with the catchy «Take Me There» and set the precedent for a line-up of skilled and fresh performances. Cindy Morgan‘s renditions of «Make Us One» and «Praise The King» are nothing short of anointed, and newcomer Ginny Owens has the audience in awe with her stunning song of submission «If You Want Me To». Elsewhere, Wilshire give a hearty performance, and Chris Rice demonstrates his gifting as a live performer, as well as a songwriter, with gems like, «Deep Enough To Dream» and «Big Enough». Compere Michael W Smith rounds off the evening with a worship medley of Rich Mullins songs – the obvi­ous beauty of the moment is somewhat lost in the mix, but this in no way detracts from the sense of worship contained here. An enjoyable introduction to the Rocketown stable. [Lins Honeyman, Cross Rhythms, February 2000]
