I really like Jeremy, but I think he's still got a little bit of maturing (vocally) to do before he is an upgrade over Keith. Can't wait to see the new lineup!!!
What do you mean by maturing vocally?? Just curious.
Jeremy has a much better bass lead voice and smooth upper range and can match Keith on the bottom end with a better tone and not near as much vocal fry.

If you listen to something George Younce recorded at age 25, and something else he recorded at age 50, you would probably know what the person above means.
The same could be said for something J.D. Sumner recorded at 25 and at 50, though some people think his work at a young age is better. Either way, it's noticeably different.

You will not want miss this very special night of golden hits. Also appearing throughout will be Mercy's Mark and Brian Free & Assurance.

Yes. I loved Keith, but Jeremy's stage presence/look actually fits much better with BFA. He also has a great smile and is wonderful vocally.
I've seen Jeremy twice now and I'd seen Keith 6 or 7 times and Jeremy actually hits solid low notes at places Keith didn't. Jeremy just takes the song and rocks it! Keith was very good too, don't get me wrong, but until you see Jeremy you can't really make a good judgment.
Keith had age, but Jeremy is no demotion, IMO.

BFA was near Knoxville last week at the Grand Opening of a Motor Home business for a free concert. I did not get to go because of work.

I too bought one of their pre-releases, but I actually thought the vocals were overproduced. Barry Weeks (producer of the Booth Bros "Blind Man Saw It All" project) produced the album and I think he/they went a touch too far with the vocals. The songs are good. I really like the cd, but the vocals aren't nearly as dynamic and clear as they are on "It's So God." I loved "The Biggest Step," "I Believe God," and others, but they've actually produced better albums, IMO.
BTW, this album should do very well for them, but I was slightly dissappointed in the style. I'm not saying it was too progressive, I'm just saying it wasn't quite as much to my particular taste as "It's So God" was.

Wow, if you're saying it was pretty progressive...well, let's just say it probably won't be the next MTT "Journey Thus Far" in style!

Well I am done with the "Real Faith" CD... and I must say it is completely different from their other cd's. But... I do like it.
I was reading in a post about Jeremy replacing Keith... some was for it... and some was against it. But I have to be honest... there is some places in the CD that Jeremy sounds a little bit like Keith. Adding Jeremy has not changed their overall sound..... they are still have the same wonderful, tight harmony sound.

Just A Question.....
Am I the only one that owns BFA's "Real Faith." So far nobody but myself has commented on it.

They sound like great songs, including one called Prayin' Man that is being released to radio today.
