The big-time sound of Fred Hammond, described here as "the architect of urban praise and worship," echoes the influence of a variety of old skool pop-R&B stars: Stevie Wonder, Luther Vandross, Earth, Wind and Fire, Kool and the Gang, even Steely Dan. But the fact that Hammond's music is derivative (whose isn't?) detracts not at all from this exemplary contemporary gospel concert by the Dallas-based singer-musician. Hammond, who played bass for the Winans and was a founding member of the popular group Commissioned, fronts a large ensemble in the 97-minute show, joined by the enraptured congregation at the Potter's House, his Dallas church. This is not your grandfather's gospel music; the funky, slapping bass and hard rock guitar, the lyrics projected on a screen behind the stage, and the slick video production (featuring various film effects and the kind of kinetic editing used for pop concert productions) would likely bewilder fans of pioneers like the Rev. James Cleveland; so would Hammond's references to "old school jams" and hip language like "I know it might be hard to get your praise on." Shoot, there's even an American Idol element, as past winner Ruben Studdard ("He's looking sugar sharp," says Fred) joins the crew for a couple of numbers. But there's one element common to all good gospel, and that's kind of relentless energy and uplifting spirit that would get an atheist excited. Put simply, songs like "L.O.U.D.," "This is the Day," and many others among the 15 presented here rock. In the end, getting your praise on isn't so tough after all. --Sam Graham

 Free To Worship September 2, 2008
I simply love Fred Hammond's latest Project. This video is energetic, exciting & lives up to what Fred Hammond is all about. Fred take gospel to a higher level with his versatile style of musical renditions & helps confirm him as a major force in the industry.
Done it Again!!! May 23, 2008
God Bless you Fred!!!

"No Greater Love".....ooo weeee Jesus!!!
Satisfied with purchase April 6, 2008
We were satisfied with our purchase. The dvd was in good condition and was received very quickly.
 Great Material October 30, 2007
Only problem with this is that the video is not in sync with the music. I wonder how long it took them to make it like that?
Music is great tho. Bless God for Fred and em.
Great music but strange video editing August 21, 2007
The music is different from the other concert DVDs, but I got used to it. His music is really exciting and powerful.
HOWEVER, whoever edited and produced the DVD did a terrible job. It has LOTS of cheezy effects that an amatuer would use for a home made video. Lots of awkward transitions that gets distracting, and bad typography! I would love to see a scene for atleast 10-15 secs before moving onto another camera. err. Its worse than Israel Houghtens Live and From Another Level DVD...
