"I Go To the Rock - also a documentary of the same name - is a celebration of her church roots, collating gospel recordings from across her career, some well known, some previously unreleased ... The selections here, all with full gospel choir backing, are slick to the point of sanitisation, with a touch of musical theatre jazz hands to the rendition of Joy to the World, but Houston testifies effortlessly".

"I Go to the Rock doesn't include every one of Houston's gospel moments-her appearance on BeBe and CeCe Winans's 1988 track "Hold Up the Light," for example, is absent-but the collection is a splendid remembrance of a divine talent who should have turned 60 this August".
