Reviewed by Stephen Luff There are many hymn collections out there, varying in both quality and style. Here we have 12 re-workings of these classics with arrangements which take in pop, Americana and a bit of modern country. The first cut is Edward Perronet s The Sound That Saved Us All sung by songwriter and producer Antony Skinner (sounding like Springsteen in many ways), is a great opener and sets the pace for the collection. Savannah Ellis presents George Matteson s Love You Never Let Me Go based on the original 1882 hymn but with additional lyrics from producer John Hartley. It works well with a strong vocal and deft banjo. Alleluia He Has Loved Us has a Mumford And Sons feel delivered by UK-based Tom McConnell while The Choir s Derry Daugherty puts in a good vocal on The Glory Hymn .
