Missing artist in list

"I bought this albulm when it first came out. I found myself really enjoying the songs sung by my favorite of the artist that comprise the album; but they are all refreshing variations of the familiar hymns. The track listing on this website does not mention the artist for the last two tracks: "The Savior is Waiting"-TAKE 6 and "Onward, Christian Soldiers"-Petra

I'd pass

"All the hymns selected are standards that have survived centuries and continue to have just as much power today. However, these contemporary artists try to reinvent the wheel on some of these songs and some fail miserably. The grandeur of the hymns are lost in replacement of synthesized modern sounds that really don't fit with these types of songs. The only track that I enjoy is Amy Grant's redition of "'Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus." I don't believe this track by Amy can be found on any other CD. It's the one redeeming track. But isn't that what God's grace is all about? The message is still powerful. I would find a more traditional arrangement of these hymns."
