Retrospective represents Father Peter Bowes' greatest gifts over 9 years and 8 albums. Completely re-recorded, the album delivers new arrangements and a vigorous vibrancy while maintaining the love-filled energy of Father Peter's greatest hits. The result is a dynamic collection of powerfully moving songs that span the range of heartrending ("What Made You Love Me?") to heart-opening ("Strong Winds").

For those who have followed Father Peter's music since the beginning, Retrospective still possesses the single characteristic that sets Father Peter's songwriting apart: they introduce listeners to Jesus and Mary, and open up a possibility of having a real, deep relationship with them.

At its essence, Retrospective is most accurately described as a beautiful gift not just to Christians but to anyone who longs for deep, real music.
