Hi everybody. I was just wondering if anyone could recommend some
John Michael Talbot CD's. What is his best CD? Thanks in advance.

God bless,

I can't name just one . . .

The God of Life still sounds great to me, as does Troubador for the Lord
(which may not be the exact title -- it was his tribute, so to speak, to
St. Francis. It was released as a double vinyl album, but I believe it's
been releases as a single cd).

His Christmas album, The Birth of Jesus, is outstanding.

His most recent recordings haven't enticed me as much, although his Hiding
Place was lovely.

Others?

Dave, JMT is one of my all time favorites. It's his "Come To The Quiet"
album that has the most special place in my heart. Absolutely
ministers to me like nothing else ever has musically. "Troubador" is
also another favorite. "Songs of Worship 1 and 2" are other super
collections. I have not stayed as current with his newer releases.
I guess that when I'm in the mood for that type of soothing,
worshipful music, the 8 or 9 albums that I have of his are more
than enough. :-)

I'd love to hear from others though if I am missing out by not
having his newer releases.

Dave,
I personally like JMT's album _The Master Musician_. It is one
of my personal favorites.

_The Regathering_ is the most incredible one in my book?

It had the same choir who sang on the soundtrack for the movie _the
Mission_

I agree with Come To The Quiet, also Songs For The Bride and Master Musician.

For sleeping purposes? I've found that sleeping pills work almost as
good. :)

Of course, if you want to get a sense of JMT before his move to
the monkhood, Sparrow put out a self-titled album (1976) and The New
Earth (1977). He also did an album with his brother Terry called "Reborn"
(1976) (I actually still have the original cassettes of all this
stuff!) which was a re-release of his old band with Warner Bros. - I
think they were called Manassah. Anyway, this stuff is country-folk-rock
in the tradition of early Crosby-Stills-Nash&Young (when Christian rock
was running about ten years behind the times). The first post-monastic
album I got was "Heart of the Shepherd" (Sparrow, 1987).

I'm pretty sure the name of the band was Mason Profitt.

The best John Michael Talbot CD? The Lord's Supper, bar none.
The next 4:
2) Come To The Quiet
3) The God of Life
4) The Regathering
5) Chant From The Hermitage
