Title: GARY SHARES HIS PAST
Product review: Gary's split with Amy Grant obviously influenced OUTSIDE. Most of the tracks have a bittersweet message, although his strong faith seems to give him an inner strength as a source of support.As always, Gary sings with unbridled passion and conviction, giving listeners a channel to his hurt and disappointment. All tracks are well executed. My highlights include: the desperate NOTHING WITHOUT YOU mirroring his need for Amy and Jesus; DADDY CUT MY HAIR, an insightful and realistic look at father and son relationships; HOLD ON, I LOVE YOU I DO YOU BET, AS GOOD AS GOODBYE GETS, LEARNING TO LOVE and THE WAY YOU'VE SHOWN ME HOW, all truly heartfelt and beautiful ballads.OUTSIDE is not Chapman's best album, but it is a very good one and recommended.
