CPR Volume 2 is a fine successor to it's predecessor. Two of the biggest names from Volume 1 (
Neal Morse and
Glass Hammer) find their way back to the album. The others joining them are all unknown to me (except for
Simon Apple) but their contribution all range from very good to excellent. The musical genres featured on Volume 2 are very varied indeed. Some tracks can be considered almost New age, others are bordering on Metal, Pop or Neo Prog.
CPR Volume 2 is a nice way of getting acquainted with the American Prog Scene of today. Followers of the Christian Faith will find an extra incentive in buying this CD. Those who are not should not be stopped from enjoying this excellent music by the common theme linking these songs.
