    It's been quite a while since the last installment of our ongoing coverage of worship music releases, so without any ado here's an overview of a dozen or so releases from the latter half of 2000.

    The "Celtic thing" has slowed a little bit over the past few months but one release has still slipped into our pile. Nick and Anita Haigh are part of the Northumbria Community in England and their Celtic Roots and Rhythms - Heartcry differs from many similarly titled albums in cutting down on the pipes and whistles and instead focusing on low-key vocal driven songs with the Celtic influence apparent in the melodies and the holistic touch to the lyrics.
