Guide Picks - Top 7 LDS Music CD's
Searching for a new music CD that will appeal to you and/or your kids? Here are the top seven CD's reviewed by Cindy Siebert.
1.) Hello Sky

By Julie de Azevedo. "'Hello Sky' contains 10 songs written or co-written by Ms. de Azevedo. This is not an album of LDS inspirational music. Instead, it's a contemporary pop album done by an LDS artist. Very similar to what you might hear on an adult contemporary station but with a wonderful difference; it is very LDS values friendly."

2.) A Prayer Unto Thee - Hymns to Our Savior
By Kenneth Cope. "The album consists of 10 hymns or hymn medleys arranged so that they are sung as though speaking directly to the Savior.... The instruments are as varied as a piano, a trumpet, a recorder and a guitar.  The music is very beautiful and very soothing while in no way competing with the words of the hymns."

3.) Women of Destiny - Songs Celebrating the Relief Society Declaration
"The songs on this album truly celebrate all the women of the church.... Most albums require more than one listening before I truly enjoy the whole thing, but this one I loved from the first song."

7.) Equilibrium
By Shane Jackman. "With the songs on this album, Mr. Jackman is attempting to be a storyteller. Each of the songs has a short story to tell within the lyrics of the song."
