A career as long and varied as that of Daniel Amos would be impossible to compress onto a single disc. Nevertheless, KMG has made a valiant attempt at representing the band at various stages of their development. The songwriting skill and humour of Terry Scott Taylor shines through clearly, as does the talent of many of the movers and shakers of the Christian alternative music movement. A lot of this material, with the regular country stylings or New Wave cuts will be a culture shock for those raised on slick 90s pop. For those who want to familiarize themselves with one of the definitive left-of-center Christian bands or who simply haven't managed to locate some of their harder to find releases, this album will be a fine addition.
