I grew up in a very traditional IFB church. I loved hymns, patriotic music (think JW Peterson) and John Denver's Thank God I'm a country Boy, ....oh and Handel's Messiah.
As I got older, I listened to the local Christian radio station, and enjoyed church choirs, like FBC Dallas, and Truth.
I remember falling in love with Wayne Watson's music, and there was Steve Green and Larnelle Harris and Twila Paris and then 4Him and Point of Grace, ....oh and Avalon.
Over the years I have enjoyed Kutless, Big Daddy Weave Micah Tyler and Casting Crowns, and more recently Elevation Worship, ....oh and Kari Jobe, and Laura Story, and Meredith Anders.
But the music I have enjoyed the most, is the music I got to be a part of when I was at Prestonwoof Baptist Church, during what I affectionately call, "The Glory Years", when Bradley Knight was on staff, before he got promoted to be the worship leader. I like some Brooklyn Tab, particularly the stuff that Lari Goss arranged, but he arranged for a lot of different choirs, and had some amazing works. I still like Voices of Mobile as well. My current church has recently been introducing some off the music of Prestonwood that we had never done before, and I always enjoy that. There is SO MUCH more that they haven't done, and I know that they have in their library. Some of that, is due to suggestions I have made to the three different worship leaders we have had, since losing one that had been there for many years, Hopefully, the one we have now, will stick around for a lot longer than the previous two!
My wide is from Romania, and I really got blessed listening to BBSO! They have done a lot of Prestonwood and Brooklyn Tab music.
