With a mammoth gathering of over 200 artists recorded at the new home of the Grand Ole Opry, this is a very glitzy and star studded musical assembly. It is certainly not a country music show, but when Bill Gaither interviews several country music luminaries such as various members of the Oak Ridge Boys, Bill re-asserts with them that gospel music is country music's first cousin! Indeed, it is the country artists who, in my opinion, are the stars of this recording, starting with "Jonah, Job & Moses", partially written by country music veteran Bill Anderson and powerfully sung by the Oak Ridge Boys. Other strong offerings include the very moving "In The Upper Room" by The Gatlin Brothers, "Ain't Gonna Give Up On God", by the exceptional pianist Gordon Mote and "The One I'm Dying For" by The Isaacs. There is also a very strong track called "The Promise" by southern gospel favourites The Martins. As with most of the Gaither DVD's the running time is excellent (110 minutes).
