Furthermore - From the Studio: From the Stage
Jars of Clay
Essential Records

Following the success of "The Eleventh Hour" CD, tour, and live video, Jars of Clay have released "Furthermore - From the Studio: From the Stage." "Furthermore" is a two CD collection of the Jar's best loved tunes.

On the first CD "From the Studio," the songs have been re recorded in more of an acoustical fashion. This acoustical-earthy feeling opens the mind, body, and soul with tenderness. It gives new life and meaning to the songs that are already loved by many.

The second CD "From the Stage" was recorded during the successful The Eleventh Hour tour. It captures the best moments as does the recent video release of the same tour. One of the most popular arguments in many online chat rooms seems to be how well Jars of Clay perform live. My one time experience with Jar's live left me feeling disappointed and leaning towards the "not so good" side. However "From the Stage" captures them at their very best.

This two CD collection is more than worthy of it's price. The mere collection of so many cherished songs, not just dubbed from earlier versions but enhanced either acoustically or live makes it a must have for Jars of Clay fans.
