Testify To Love LIVE| Posted July 09, 2008
After their out-of-the-box best-seller greatest hits album in 2003, Avalon had pretty much covered it all--four studio recordings (two of which were RIAA-certified Gold), a CBA top-selling Christmas project, a successful remix album, millions of CDs sold, 20 #1 hits, and a handful of awards and nominations. One thing they hadn't accomplished then was the filming of a live DVD, which took place in Nashville, Tennessee in the summer of 2003 and was appropriately titled, Testify To Love: LIVE In Concert.
Several of the group's hits are all found here, from Oxygen's opening heart-pumper "Wonder Why" to Christian music's groundbreaking smash "Testify To Love". A stirring rendition of the power ballad "Adonai" as well as Janna Long's signature hit "Can't Live A Day" are included, as is the irresistible encouraging pop tune "New Day", sure to get you clapping and singing along in no time. Take a trip back to 1996 (Avalon's debut year) for the upbeat "Give It Up", a challenge to give everything up for the Lord. Group members Jody McBrayer and Janna Long preview their solo albums with McBrayer's spine-tingling "To Ever Live Without Me" and Long's ballad "More".
However, even though this a good showcase of Avalon's best material, where are the other fan favorites? The AC gem "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" is left off, as well as "Undeniably You", "In Not Of", "Make It Last Forever", and also three hits from the quartet's self-titled debut.
Avalon's vocals are as close to the recording as possible, with tight harmonies throughout the performance.
All in all, Testify To Love LIVE is a nice preview of what Avalon has to offer, and is definitely worth buying to enjoy a live performance from Avalon in your own home. The only thing missing? A longer setlist!
