    The rest of the album is a little more stiff than it should have been, fault going to the antiseptic arrangements, rigid musicianship, and Johnson's wavering take on "Have Thine Own Way, Lord," which needs a lot more solemnity (or at least stability) to truly get its message across.

    There are moments when things don't quite work as they should. But the Blind Boys, left to their own devices on the funky Jesus, Hold My Hand, do what they do best. [Jun 2011, p.104]

    Nothing on Take The High Road isn't impeccable, but equally little is surprising. [Jul 2011, p.79]

    This highly enjoyable celebration of the Lord is co-produced by country star Jamey Johnson.
