By Francis King "Frank King" (Whitby, ON Canada)
This evangelical Christian pop singer/songwriter has had a long career with many recorded highlights. However, it's likely none will best this 11-song collection. Part of the reason is producer Brown Bannister. He's worked such reknowned Christian acts as Amy Grant, Petra, White Heart and dozens more, plus mainstream crooner Kenny Rogers. Bannister has an ear for bringing the very best out of the artists he works with, and with him Paris found some deeper, more delicate depths than anything she wrote or recorded before. At times (How Beautiful, This Thorn) this album is almost achingly beautiful. Then she connects with something more rousingly inspiring (Undivided Heart, Nothing But Love). Besides the sheer poetry of her lyrics, there's also the arrangements. Bannister's unique touch is most evident here -- the songs fit nicely onto Christian pop radio, yet went beyond the generic stuff that was so often called 'adult contemporary' in the early '90s. Just listen to the title track for proof.
