Greatest Hits

Forefront, 2007

REVIEW BY: Michael Ehret

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED: 09/03/2007

OK, I know a trend when I see one. And this is a trend that needs to stop. In the secular music world, great money is being made by two “series” of greatest hits collections: Gold and Essential. In these collections, classic artists’ hits are repackaged, often again and again, to take advantage of low costs and high returns.

Now comes the CCM industry, aping yet another questionable secular trend. Essential Records did it this year with FFH and Caedmon’s Call and now Forefront is jumping on the bandwagon with an unnecessary and incomplete greatest hits collection that is nothing more than an excuse for the record company to milk fans for easy money. Does that sound harsh? It’s not.

How else to explain releasing a Greatest Hits disc in 2007 from long-defunct dc Talk that is not as complete or essential as the hits disc they already released in 2000, Intermission? This new one has fewer songs and is essentially the same (even in song order) as the earlier disc, but offers nothing new and excludes the classic “I Wish We’d All Been Ready” from that earlier disc.

Again, not a thing wrong with this music from dc Talk. It was trailblazing for its time and still sounds strong and relevant today. The songs are still great.
