As I reported with volume 2, this features a choir (probably from Australia) about which nothing is known. Vol 3 offers 25 songs but from a wider repertoire than Vol 2, even including such non-Christian numbers as "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and "Let It Be". As far as Christian songs go, you've got the spiritual "Joshua Fit The Battle Of Jericho" alongside praise songs like "Awesome God" and "His Strength Is Perfect". The real crusher is the abysmal soloists, awful small ensemble choral group and banal arrangements. Really, who is responsible for this? Own up and take your medicine. Vol 3 is marginally better than the previous album. . . but still rubbish.
