This being a sampler CD, you get a variety of styles featured on the album. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, almost all the tracks meld very well together and an unattentive listener could think he is listening to one perticular band's CD. I admit to liking this album even though I am not a practicing Christian. Most of the songs' lyrics are not directly religious anyway (there even are a few instrumentals), and for the others (like the Neil Morse piece for example) the music is good enough that a non religious inclined listener will not to be bothered by the message. For those who appreciate Christian music, the messages vehiculed on CPR will be an added bonus.
This album is recommended to all progressive rock fans who want to discover a nice bunch of talented American style progressive rock musicians. Some will also get a positive vibe listening to the lyrics.
