Many feel that Sam Darby has actually created a new genre of religious music for listeners thirsting for a contemporary means to celebrate their Christianity. Some have described Darbys work as gospel rap, but with a smooth jazz sound. Others have compared it in style to the Last Poets, a group that was popular in the seventies. Regardless of the designation, listeners are becoming more and more attracted to the thoughtful poetry, intriguing rhythms and Sams inimitable interpretations.
These CDs have something for every age group to appreciate and enjoy. Younger children enjoy the stories. Older adults appreciate the provocative poetry and the smooth rhythms. Those in the middle can identify with Sams contemporary approach to things spiritual. Tracks range from Bible stories like the Birth of Jesus and the Creation and the Story of Noah and the Ark to verses in the vernacular like the Twenty Third Psalm or 1 Corinthians 13 or Revelation 3. Provocative titles like Streak for Jesus," The Second Coming will not be Televised" and My Prerogative" are thoughtful modernizations of eternal themes. The track, Im Talking about Your Mother" is a fast fan favorite and is sure to become a classic recording as a Mothers Day tribute.
