Album Of The Day: Bellsburg: The Songs of Rich Mullins by Various Artists
In 1997, Rich Mullins, who wrote songs such as "Sing Your Praise To The Lord", "El-Shaddai" and "Awesome God" in the decade or so before, passed away in a car accident. 25 years later, friends of his and new artists that were inspired by him drove out to the house he once owned in a rural area called Bellsburg, outside of Nashville, Tennessee. Right in his former living room, they recorded new, simple covers of his well-known and lesser-known songs. It's definitely great to hear these songs being performed by old-timers and the next generation of singer-songwriters. Plus a few rare, unreleased, early tracks by Rich Mullins himself are included in this album as well. It's a great remembrance of one of my favorite songwriters of all time.
