The 1950s and 1960s evidenced new trends, and whilst in the preceeding 90 years of Salvation Army instrumental publication contributions were continually received from all parts of the world, the 1970s saw a surge of new scores from the USA. Whilst some established regular contributors were fading from the scene, material was coming through from new composers whose work gave immense promise. In the ensuing years, it has become clear that much of that promise has been wonderfully fulfilled.
Disc 1 consists of new recordings while Disc 2 is compiled from previous recordings by The International Staff Band.
