Released to mark the anniversary of Sir Cliff Richard's 40th year in the charts, the 30 songs here were selected by fans worldwide voting for their 'Favourite Cliff Christian Song'. Opening with Paul Field's apocalyptic "Thief In The Night", it's a mixed bag of studio and live recordings stretching right back to the '70s. No surprises at finding chart hits "From A Distance" and "Saviour's Day" here, though some might wonder if "The Only Way Out" blurs the selection criteria. Other goodies are Larry Norman classics "Why Should The Devil Have All The Good Music" and "I Wish We'd All Been Ready" - longstanding stalwarts of Cliff's Christian repertoire, and songs from other writers include Judy Mackenzie's "Free" and "Better Than I Know Myself", Terry Britten's "Walking In The Light" and "Yes, He Lives" and Mal Pope's "Reunion Of The Heart". Seven tracks, including the title cut, are Sir Cliffs often underrated self-penned material. - Crossrhythms
