The Big Picture by Michael W. Smith
The Big Picture is Michael W. Smith's release from 1986, melodic songs with a strong hook. It runs to 51 minutes across 11 tracks on Reunion. It came to me long after release and earned its place.
Why listen?
The songs are bright and well made, each one built around a strong hook. The production is clean and the melodies carry the weight. It is craft you can hear on the first listen.
Favourite song: Rocketown
Rocketown is the high point of the record, the moment where everything comes together. It is worth the price of the record on its own.
What was his mission?
Where was he going?
Why was his heartlight always glowing?
All I was missing
He stood there holding
What was his secret?
Could I know it?
Key takeaway
The Big Picture is well worth your time. Recommended.
