I wonder if pulling the message board had anything to do with Loren's departure? They probably don't want fans guessing about Loren's replacement on their message board. I hate to see Loren go, but I just love the Perrys' music, and I hope letting us know what the new lead singer sounds like will be a good enough excuse for releasing a new album soon!

That was the best they sounded in their entire career. It is a fact that the Perrys will never sound as great as when Nicole Watts and Mike Bowling sang with them.

It's the best Perrys release since their restructuring. What should you be listening to? My answer is: The Perrys’ Come Thirsty. It’s the best Perrys release since their restructuring.

I'm consistently disappointed by the quality of recordings this group puts out. I was hoping the new label and new producer would help maximize their potential, but if the first release with Song Garden is any indication we can look forward to many more sub-par recordings to come. It cetainly isn't that The Lesters don't have the talent; aside from occassional appearances from Jonathan they are stacked vocally. I've never been able to understand why their recordings generally fail to deliver. The Lesters latest project is a stinker.

J/K!!!!!!!!!!But the KP&NR,Whisnants,Lauren Talley,Collingsworth Family,oh,and add the Duvall Family to that list,are my suggestions.But if you want to take me up on that McKameys' offer...I can hook you up with a great way to personally get them...in concert...LOLOLOL.

Not as good as their self-titled album, but good nonetheless. If you haven’t picked up Mercy’s Mark’s second table product–Southern Selections 2, get it while you can.

I am a huge fan, and have loved most everything they have put out. I could not find one song I liked on this new project, maybe it will grow on me. I was very disappointed in the new Talley Trio Cd.

I have recently gotten back "into" them, and i have 3 of their albums, with the newest one "Bless the Broken Road" on pre-buy...can't wait to pick it up next week! It sounds like it'll be a good one, from the clips on their website. I noticed, interestingly enough, that Jason Crabb joins them for "Ain't No Grave," with Adam playing the harmonica...blurring the lines? lol! Try Selah…the contemporary group that does hymns a lot.

It is, IMO, the best ever for them. I've been a fan of theirs since the beginning (wayyyy years ago!), and I always enjoy them, but this project is the best! Great songs, couple of sleepers they must feel they need to include for audiences somewhere, but for the most part, it is awesome. Lauren just continues to show her stuff. They are blessed and their sincerity and class are showing on this project. Hurry up and get it! You need to pick up the Talleys’ new project. It is, IMO, the best ever for them.
