 Sunday Morning Jam, Vol. 2  The project opens with an energy-charged “Soon And Very Soon” featuring the dynamic Jonathan Dubose on guitar. It’s spiritual fervor resounding in this celebrated Andrae Crouch tune as every note heralds the great day we await when we meet our King.Organist Ralph Lofton, Jr. makes melodious articulation in “How Great Thou Art”, lending a contemporary feel to this familiar piece, which is exquisitely re-arranged by Lofton. He exclaims how great our Lord is via his passionate artistry. Saxophonist Donald Hayes just worships on the track, stamping his signature sound on it with his creativity and impeccable sax technique. Simply refreshing is DuBose’s adaptation of “Amazing Grace”, which tickles the ears for only two minutes, but leaves a lasting impression. For the traditional music fans, there are plenty of things to savor. “I Don’t Know About Tomorrow,” “Come To Jesus” and “Peace Be Still” are all awesomely rendered. Derrick Jackson’s solo piano on “I Don’t Know About Tomorrow” will certainly have your hands swaying back and forth in amazement, as it grows and grows and grows and peaks will a paramount finish. Awesome! “Come To Jesus” and “Peace Be Still” are equally strong. The furious instrumentation coupled with the zeal supplied by DuBose and Hayes says “glory to God in the highest! Lofton takes you back to the old landmark with his "Worship Medley". His momentous offering recalls the old choir days of the Sunday morning marching processional tunes such as “My Faith Looks Up to Thee" and "Holy, Holy, Holy", up to the climatic benediction, “Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow.” If that ain’t Sunday morning, I am not sure what is! The musical assortment is completed by a moving “Hallelujah”, first made famous by Andrae Crouch. This rendition is a spirit-stirring presentation of a the Word ,translated majestically through music by Jackson. Indeed, 'hallelujah' is the only thing left to say at its conclusion. The Quiet Time Players heartily minister on Sunday Morning Jam Volume 2. Whether your day has been troublesome or fancy and carefree, this project will meet you at the place of your request. Although words can say plenty, some things don’t need words at all. Like worship.
