"It's Time For Love" by Marvin Webb (Spiritual Artist from San Francisco, California(CA))

RadioIndy is pleased to present Marvin Webb with a GrIndie Award for the CD "It's Time For Love"

"It's Time For Love" is a self-proclaimed rhythm & gospel live album from Minister Marvin Webb. His smooth r&b vocals are reminiscent of Marvin Gaye and Tedy Pendergrass, and together with lyrics of praise and worship, Minister Webb has crafted an inspiring contemporary gospel album. His lyrics criticize the social side of the secular world. He sings about violence and poor conditions within many communities, and politically, about the long battle for peace in the Middle East, lifting the words up and putting them in the hands of the nonsecular world. The recording quality of "It's Time For Love" is also quite good, with few traces that it is a live recording. That said, it still manages to make you feel as though you are in a house of worship. "Simon Peter" takes one of the most memorable of Jesus' prophecies and compares the audience to Simon Peter himself, inferring our imperfections and God's forgiveness. "Get Your Praise On" is a great funk gospel track with a great arrangement filled with funky lead guitar, hand claps, and a nice group vocal. Overall, "It's Time For Love" is an effective album that discusses contemporary issues and the value of praising God within each of them. Fans of contemporary gospel and worship songs prepare. Minister Webb is about to show you what rhythm & gospel is all about.-Chris & the RadioIndy.com Review Team
