"What We Really Need" is the first recording by the racially eclectic Heart of the City Worship Band. The songs on this project are not your typical "Praise and Worship" fare. The CD starts with a bang with the rockin’ "We Believe You" and jumps right into the rock gospel song "Rise Up" featuring the hot HOTC horn section. From there the album takes you through through Caribbean flavored songs "We Celebrate the Love of God", and the popular song "IT IS GOOD"-again accented by Heart of the City’s great brass section and big vocal sound. "We Will Not Offer You" is a combination of Reggae and swing that is reminiscent of the music of "Sting". Then the album shifts gear into the "in your face" lyrics and stark alternative production of "What We Really Need". The next song is funky gospel song that’s a prayer entitled "Let Your Love Flow". The eight cut, "I Will Sing Unto the Lamb" is a mixture of a "Negro spiritual" feel with a Messianic praise style. "We Choose to Bow" is guitar driven minor ballad (that has also been arranged by Allegis music and recorded by Azusa Pacific Choir in a orchestra "Quo Vadis" type feel"). This song could be described as a song of militant submission. "Open the Eyes of Our Hearts" (no, not the Paul Baloche song) is a powerful, slow gospel song that’s a prayer taken from the book of Ephesians. "We Love You, Lord" is a pop ballad featuring African American, Nancy Ellis who, on this song, has a sort of Diana Ross sound to her voice. The 12th cut, "Right Here, Right Now" features Sandy Adler and is a powerful, praise ballad that truly soars. And the last cut, features Dan Adler "live" with an Epilogue of the title cut. This project is exciting, refreshing and features honest, deep lyrics that will touch your heart.
