Remember that these albums were recorded in the 70's. If you're used to modern/rock style worship music, then these albums may sound strange to your ears. The unique strength of these albums is the fact that the songs are straight from the bible.

The first 3 albums (I Will Praise Thee, O Worship the Lord, The Lord Lives) have simple musical arrangements consisting of harmonized vocals, guitars, keyboards, and bass, with the occasional violin, banjo, or harmonica. The arrangements on these albums sound basically the same as what you would have heard at a live New Creation concert. The best way I can describe them is that they have a "folk/vocal" style typical of the late 60's/early 70's… kind of "Peter Paul & Mary"-ish. These 3 albums contain most of The New Creation Singers' "classics"… the core of the group's repertoire. Members of the group wrote almost all of these songs.

The 4th album, Reality Road, is the most unique New Creation album in that it does not contain scripture songs. This album was recorded in 1973 after the group had returned from two European tours in the midst of the turbulent hippie movement. Ministering to young people in schools and coffeehouses inspired the group to include evangelistic songs in their concerts, songs that spoke directly to the issues young people were facing. Some of these songs were written by Ray Bevan, a young English man who had received Christ at a New Creation Singers meeting in 1971. Like the first 3, this album has a "folk" style but with a slight "pop/rock" twist designed to appeal to 70's youth.

The last 4 albums (Perfect Praise, Sweeter Than Honey, New Every Morning, Refreshing) were what I call "big-budget studio albums" in that they have a polished, "studio" sound with musical arrangement, instrumentation, etc. These albums feature full orchestration including drums, brass, strings, etc. Also, they are all scripture songs. These albums had bigger studio budgets because they were made at a time when the group was well established and was receiving Christian radio airplay.

The 5th album, Perfect Praise, was designed to appeal to children, yet its songs stand on their own merit. Some of the vocals on this album are by young children. It also features a "Disneyland style" marching band.
