What The World Needs Now

Cathie Christie

A Quiet Place

(1972)

Not sure if Cathie wanted to release a pop album or a Christian album here... there certainly are a few pop songs in here with religious themes. The combo sound just as suited for a church function as they do for a hotel lobby. 

Her voice however has the commanding presence of someone who probably has only taken solos on hymnals in a church choir.

It appears she released one more album, also religious material, about a decade later... in Australia. 

Liner notes:

"A Quiet Place" is Cathie Christie's first venture into the recording field... and we trust the first in a series of coming albums.

Together, with her arranger Gene Roberson, they selected a variety of contemporary songs that we'll expresses her living faith. The lyrics become her own... and each melody conveys a new and meaningful message to the listener. 

Cathie Christie is blessed with an exceptional singing voice. The range and quality of her singing are truly warm and inspirational. Her love for the Lord Jesus Christ adds a deep dimension of spiritual power to her songs. It is a pleasure to commend Cathie and her songs to you.
