Veteran CCM bassman and singer Rick has made some hot albums down the years but this I would suggest is his finest. Take the autobiographical opener, "Italo Americano" where diverse elements - a jazzy groove, some heavy rock guitar and a delightful sung-in-ltalian male chorus fuse into a wonderful radio-friendly piece of pop rock or "Never Give Up" where another great hook is matched by a blistering axe solo from producer and long term Steve Taylor associate Dave Perkins. A strong message of hope runs throughout the album which is recommended to all pop rock gospel enthusiasts.
