Glad began as a progressive Christian rock band in the early seventies. Rich complex arrangements and lush vocal melodies have been their trademark. Each of their early albums had one a cappella tune included. As an experiment, in 1988, they recorded the A Cappella Project which was received with such enthusiasm that they have been alternating instrumental accompaniment with a cappella albums ever since. Glad singing Gershwin is a total treat. All the standards are here 'I've Got Rhythm,' 'The Girl I Love,' 'Someone To Watch Over Me' etc. To this reviewer 'The Gershwin Medley' is nothing short of fabulous! |
