Pages of Life: Chapters 1 & 2 is a double-disc set: the first disc is a new studio record, the second a live set that captures
Fred Hammond &
Radical For Christ in concert in Detroit. Both records demonstrate that
Hammond is an innovative, exceptional musician, capable of capturing the spiritual fervor of traditional gospel with the smooth rhythms and streetwise attitude of urban R&B. This is especially apparent on the second disc, when the spirit simply surges through the live performance, but the first disc is one of
Hammond's better records, filled with great songs and true passion. ~ Rodney Batdorf
