Product Description
Randy Gunn is an incredibly versatile guy. This man from Colorado, who looks like a movie star, is a former Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association national champion who also feels a calling for Jesus and for music, and is known as "The Pistol Packin' Preacher." He and wife Heidi, whose nickname is "Straight Arrow," lead the 8-piece GunnPoint Band, which performs at Cowboy Churches and major Cowboy events nationwide.
With the 2003 album Trusting, Randy presents nine songs of faith and inspiration, including three he wrote himself ("Trusting," "Oh My Lord," and "Let You Live"). Dion DiMucci wrote four of the other songs. Gunn has a big, powerful baritone, which he can use to either preach or soothe. It's interesting to contrast the uptempo "He's The One," for instance, with its Gospel-flavored, organ-based arrangement, and "Sweet Surrender," a ballad which features a guitar- and saxophone-centered orchestration and a restrained vocal performance. Keyboard standout CJ Lewis and Randy work a wonderful counterpoint in the plaintive "Let You Live," while Randy and his outstanding band set a mellow mood on the traditional "Give Me Jesus"/"No One Ever Cared For Me Like Jesus" medley.
The album closes with a bonus track, a fine instrumental medley of the CD's tunes.
