The Immortals is a diverse group of individuals that demonstrate God's unerring ability to accomplish any goal HE chooses. They perform for Believers (to encourage and uplift) and to non-believers and those seeking the truth. The Immortals is made up of Keith Johnson (guitar), Kelly Johnson (vocals, sax), Tom Curcuru (bass) and David Fair (drums) and they call Detroit home.
The Tracks - The Immortals - 'Walk On Water'
- "Walk On Water" - If you like R&B, you'll love this song. Musically solid, vocally expressive and a saxophone solo that is awesome add up to make a very cool song.
- "Work For You" - This song, musically, could have been written by Huey Lewis and the News. It just has that flare to it. The song also contains lyrics that are very relateable to everday Christians. Overall - a well rounded tune.
- "Eternal Love" - The way the vocals come through in this song really showcase Kelly's abilities. Musically, very uniquely put together - sort of "waltzy" but with a bit of blues mixed in. The sax adds a very professional edge to it.
- "I Talk to Jesus" - This one will take you back to the 70's with the retro feel it brings to the table. It's definitely one of those "happy" songs. The lyrics are testimonial, which is always nice to hear.
- "Holy Redeemer" - One of my favorites on the CD. The best way to describe this song is Chuck Berry meets Eddie Rabbit - with a sax thrown into the mix. I like the way it's put together, and the lyrics are challenging and point to a practical solution - Jesus.
- "Only Takes A Minute" - Which one of you is Jamaican? The vocals are of that style and the lyrics point clearly to Jesus.
The Immortals - 'Walk On Water' - The Bottom Line
Overall, I liked this album. I have to say that the talent of this band, musically, would be difficult to challenge. They are tight and perform all different styles of music perfectly. The lyrical content is unmistakeably sincere and comes from deep spiritual growth and awesome changes in the life of the songwriter. If you like variety shows, you will love this CD. It truly has something for everyone.
