Synopsis

Amazon.com

So how do you follow up a release that features the song of the year? Very soulfully, if you're Bob Carlisle, the man who made "Butterfly Kisses" the 1997 Christian song of the year. Much in the vein of Michael Bolton, Carlisle's strength lies in his brand of gritty blue-eyed soul. And it's never moved stronger than in his new release, Nothing but the Truth. In powerhouse R&B numbers such as "Lay Your Hands on Me" and "Forgiveness," Carlisle pays homage to the music of his youth and a strong exposure to Motown. There's a wonderful duet with Carlisle and Bryan Duncan, himself no vocal slouch, on the cover of "Love Is the Answer." While Carlisle's reworking of Amy Grant's "Baby Baby" seems flat, he ends the release on a rich note with the moving, deeply reflective ballad "After All" (cowritten with Randy Stonehill). --Michael Lyttle

CD Reviews

Another great album

Donna H. Mcclain | Blackshear, GA USA | 11/12/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Although I must admit I didn't like every single song on this album, I had to give it 5 stars because the second song, which I believe is "Lay your hands on me" made me laugh out loud. The words, "I don't need no psychoanalsyt to get to You," were really funny to me because I'm a psychologist-but as always, Carlisle is right- we certainly don't need a specialist to get to God, just Jesus. Shalom! dm."

P. Kingsriter | Lakeville, MN United States | 10/03/2000

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I've been a Bob Carlisle fan since I heard the first few bars of "Long Way From Paradise" back in his Allies days. He is certainly one of the most versatile vocalists in popular music (Christian OR mainstream) as he always powerfully delivers in any music style from Motown Soul/Nashville Rock numbers to tender ballads. This album, riding the wave of "Butterfly Kisses'" popularity, takes it up a notch. The arranging, engineering, and mixing is the best I've heard on any Carlisle-related album. The title track, "Nothing But The Truth," a driving and fun mixture of Latino and Blues rock, rocketed to the top of my "Wail-Along-In-The-Car" list (it's worth the price of admission all by itself), and guest vocalist Bryan Duncan's lovely tenor is always welcome. The album's remaining tracks are juiced up, but still classic Bob. The ONLY reason I didn't rate this project 5-stars is because of the retooling of Amy Grant's lolly-pop song, "Baby-baby." (I was actually embarrassed listening to it the first time with my friends who kept saying, "You've got to be kidding". After a number of listens, I was able to catch a bit of his funky vision.) Thankfully, the rest of the album's strengths more than compensate for its one misstep."
