Vince Gill's tenor combines the breathy intimacy of a whisper with the full-bodied tone of a belted gospel chorus. This is the best of both worlds, and Gill exploits his voice to make otherwise forgettable material sound like the catchiest of tunes and the most personal of confessions. The most striking song on When Love Finds You is "Go Rest High on That Mountain," which Gill wrote for his older brother Bob, who died of a heart attack after a hard life. Sounding like a processional from a church funeral, the song is simply constructed, but Gill fills it with the most passionate singing of his career, perfectly balancing sorrow and remembered affection. --Geoffrey Himes

Vince Gill is such a terrific singer that he can overcome even the frequently mediocre songwriting on When Love Finds You The country superstar's tenor combines the breathy intimacy of a whisper with the full-bodied tone of a belted gospel chorus. This is the best of both worlds, and Gill exploits it to make otherwise forgettable material sound like the catchiest of hooks and the most personal of confessions. The album's most striking song is "Go Rest High on That Mountain," which Gill wrote by himself for his older brother Bob, who died last year of a heart attack after a hard life. Sounding like a processional from a church funeral, the song is simply constructed, but Gill fills it with the most passionate singing of his career, perfectly balancing sorrow and remembered affection. --Geoffrey Himes
