 Jesusfreakhideout.com: Lincoln Brewster, "All To You (Live)" Review
You may not know the name Lincoln Brewster, but chances are if you go to a church with a modern worship service, you've heard one of his songs.
That being said, the highlight of the album is when Lincoln Brewster offers his rendition of Leonard Cohen's "Another Hallelujah." Brewster has rewritten the verses, turning an otherwise depressing song into a passionate declaration of worship.
The album comes to a fitting close with "Let the Praises Ring" and "You Are Good." While Brewster isn't exactly charting new territory in the genre of modern worship, he brings a level of excellence to the genre that is otherwise lacking.

 Souzek Republic
But back to my segue from "It's Alright, Ma." This album is focused almost entirely on being forced to deal with being alone in the world, with "no direction home" as it were.
The song that explained this entire album for me is "My Back Pages", in which he regrets the overly simplistic and idealistic moments of his youth (which ended, as far as I can tell, about eight months prior).
Although he recorded this album when he was 20 (or so), a good portion of the songs are about death and dying.

 Abbey Lincoln : Abbey Sings Billie, Vol. 1 - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Abbey Lincoln's idol has always been Billie Holiday.
Although she has never really copied Lady Day and she has long had her own style and sound, the feeling and intensity that Lincoln gives the lyrics she interprets is reminiscent of late-period Holiday.
A perfect person to pay tribute to Billie Holiday, Lincoln (on the first of two Enja CDs) is joined by the underrated tenor Harold Vick (who would pass away unexpectedly within a short time after this recording), pianist James Weidman, bassist Tarik Shaha and drummer Mark Johnson for fresh renditions of standards.

 Lincoln Brewster - All to You : tan tan noodles (v.2)
As far as worship albums go, I think “live” performances bring the music to a whole other level, especially with the crowd singing along in the background… and it shows with Lincoln’s latest album.
Not only is Lincoln is quite an accomplished guitarist (which is part of the reason I like him), his songs are full of energy, upbeat, worshipful, and straight from the passages of scripture.
Lincoln’s first album only came out a couple years ago, so he is pretty new.

Lincoln Memorial dishes out over 70 minutes of music originally edited out of more than three hours of expertly recorded jam sessions.

Another new influence for Lincoln on the album is fatherhood - he and Laura welcomed their first child, Levi, into the world last year.
Levi inspired one of Lincoln's own favorites on the record, "All I Really Want," a song that also epitomizes the process he had to go through in trusting the production of his music entirely to someone else.
