Phil & Brenda Nicholas
have ventured onto the road of greater acceptance. More Than Music has to be their
most commercial sounding project yet. The duo touches many musical bases
:urban
("Excuse Me") southern-flavored traditional gospel with choir (Well
understand it Better By & By"), beautiful ballads ("Holy Spirit") and
even a patented Nicholas love song ("I Do Promise to Love You")
One of the albums sleeper cuts is a soul-touching arrangement of
the Andrae Crouch classic "It Wont
Be Long" The selling point of the
arrangement is Phil Nicholas opening monologue which sets the mood for the powerful
message encompassed in the lyrics.
