“God Will Take Care Of You” gets ‘royal’ treatment here, with Johnson commanding effortlessly on the ubiquitous traditional gospel cut.  Johnson concludes capably with a live, extended version of “Jesus,” which does not disappoint.

 

Overall, The Experience is a solid album not without flaws.  The album gains more consistency as it proceeds instead of possessing it from the beginning.  ‘Ambition’ trends both positively and adversely for Johnson contingent upon the song.  Aside from the nitpicky, there is more than enough solid material to inspire here.
