An anthem written both for and about unity.
"Act Like You know" is rich with a march
type drive that pulls you into the beat, and
then hooks you with that beat and it"s lyrics.
Flute highlights accent and give it an awesome draw to the ear, along with a unique harpsichord flavor, putting the icing on the cake for the masterpiece that this composition is.
In a word; this timely piece is
simply.....HOT!!. |

Jam-Session is what will come to mind, as the Ensemble draws you into the moderate based tempo of this classic work. Again Bruce Parks (lead soloist) combines dialogue and song to paint the picture for us, from his own personal experiences of growing spiritually. Special effects accent the Ensemble's vocal contributions as they wale the audience into a frenzy of praise and unforgettable worship. Add all this to the musicians performance and in a word, this work sizzles. |

A "Jitter-bug Gospel Mix", best describes this dramatic piece that takes you on a musical journey second to none. The music is a combo of "old and new school", that makes the body gyrate with great enthusiasm, while anticipating the well orchestrated runs featured.
The lyrics tell a story of a spiritual
conversion that takes place because of a music heard by the story teller when he visits a friend. The rest is an experience you'll won't forget as you toe tap and move with the music. |

A foot patting, hand clapping traditional style of praise music for those ready to get loose and praise. The sound effect on this piece will make you feel like your sitting right on the front row, where this hot perofrmance was actually done. You'll find yourself caught up in the consistent movement of this one, whose pace is one that simply "ROCKS" from beginning to end. The piano, organ, & drum, is a very simplistic blend specifically designed to give you that "back in the day" sound of the spirit filled church. It is a hefty connection to our present day form and mode of worship & praise many experience as well. So get ready, & go get those shouting shoes............ "on 2nd thought:" you might want to do this one barefoot. Either way, prepare yourself for one unforgettable good time. Enjoy! |

A superb declaration of transitional and overcoming faith to move any mountain, or obstacle in ones life. Look's like I'm gonna make it, is a very soul stirring timely piece done with a heavy flavor of traditional gospel, where all instrumentations are minimal and each vocal heard is an instrument within itself. On this track you'll hear an excellent symphonic blending of vocals not heard since the days when the world famous "Cleveland Singers, Caravans, and Philadelphia's Davis Sisters" were at the peak and prime of their careers. This one is bound to become one of those legendary classic standards, expected to be around for long, long, time |

Solo performance done by the character Job's Wife as she makes her plea to the character Job, not to terminate their relationship. This love song begins very meek and mello with just a piano and light percussion, it then begins to grow and build to a dramatic climax with string, horns, flutes, accented by the sounds of birds. Another heart wrenching masterpiece. |

Atlanta is a pulsating track, filled with such musical diversity
it can be easily identified as a mixture of jazz, rock & House music.
Atlanta makes you want to get on the floor and dance the night away,
as it takes you from where you are to an imaginary place in time that simply rocks.

Very distinctly Jazz & Blues is one way to describe this track.
A Contemporary Gospel blend is another. All applies and
contributes to this composition's unique quality. This is the
instrumental version of the tune; "The Only God" written by
Parks for Gospel Song Stylist: Linda Scott. This track has such
universal appeal, Parks felt that it had to be exposed instrumentally.
Means Everything to me is all that, and is a tune you could listen to
over and over and over again. Hard to believe???? Well check it out
