Binding: Audio CDEAN: 7243825140220 Label: Virgin Records America, Inc. Manufacturer: Virgin Records America, Inc. MPN: 25140 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Virgin Records America, Inc. Release Date: November 21, 1995 Studio: Virgin Records America, Inc. Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential recording: Jesus Freak, like the 1970s phrase that it's culled from, is an oddity. Who could have ever imagined such a wonderful blend of grunge rock, rap, melodic pop, and funk? "So Help Me God" sets the tone with a wicked guitar riff that draws boundaries for the trio's magic harmonies. "What If I Stumble?" and the vastly underrated "Between You and Me" allow Michael Tait to showcase his silky smooth vocals, while "Jesus Freak" and "Mind's Eye" prove the band can change speeds and rock as hard as anyone. For good measure, they even improve upon Charlie Peacock's "In the Light." One of the best Christian CDs of the '90s. --Michael Lyttle Average Rating:
 Rating: - Great CDThis album is awesome! They made music that really spoke to me and how I really am. DC Talk is just a fun group that make good music worshipping God and you cant beat that. Rating: - .I'm gay* Now that I have your attention, lemme stop for a second and talk about this great album. This album belongs to the dreaded genre known as Christian rock. But it's still a shining beacon in a sea of nothingness, and it's guiding you to the world of Christianity in the eyes of Talt, Smith, and McKeehan, with a little help from their friends. Well, before I rant on about the songs, you must give credit to the numerous musicians that led a hand making the infectious ...

The lead singer has a great voice and their sound is similar to the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Good messages as well. Rating: - FlawlessI believe DC Talk to the greatest band to ever walk the earth. Toby Mac is a brilliant producer, and the group as a whole are some of the finest talents you will ever find. Their diversity is profound, as each of their albums conforms to the popular sound of the year it was released, and as such each of their albums is drastically different from the other. For Jesus Freak, the genre was Grunge/Rock...and this album is UNBELIEVABLY good. Arguably the best they produced. This album is also ... Read More Rating: - Outstanding'Jesus Freak' may well be the greatest album in the history of rock music. At the very least, it is the best album in the annals of Christian rock. It has something for everyone. This collection includes several genres including pop, rock, rap, and grunge. Very few groups could pull off what they do with this album. Most bands are lucky to do one genre well, let alone several. Among the best songs on this album are the following: So Help Me God, Colored People, Jesus Freak, ... Read More |
