This set from the Southern gospel guys gets off to a great start with a very catchy opener "Let Me Tell You 'Bout Jesus". Unfortunately the energy that this song creates is not sustained through many of the following tracks, one or two of which sound pretty dull in comparison. Lyrically there is some good material here, "Take My Life", the title track and the very last song "Jesus Saves" all have powerful evangelistic messages while musically they reminded me of the country group The Gatlin Brothers. However, even these tracks could have done with a more punchy production. The Quartet have a nice vocal blend but simply don't stand out in the I increasingly crowded Southern gospel field.

Product Description
Soulful vocals, smooth harmonies, and a powerful Gospel message work together to make the Mike LeFevre Quartet’s debut release, ‘Nothin’ But Good’, a must-listen for Christian music fans of all backgrounds. While this quartet stay honest to their Southern Gospel roots, their fresh vocal take on the Southern genre uses exciting and energetic tracks that place this group and album in a class all its own. ‘Nothin’ But Good’ features a great blend of songs that appeal to the Southern listener while being firmly grounded in the church. A rendition of ‘Didn’t It Rain’, a traditional spiritual done “not so traditionally,” is sure to become an instant favourite.
