When Morgan left United Live in 2002 to mount a solo career, Joel Houston took his place, prompting the name change to Hillsong United. In the years to follow their popularity snowballed on both sides of the equator, with 2006's United We Stand emerging as the year's best-selling Christian LP at Canadian retail. All of the Above found similar success in 2007, as did 2009's a_CROSS//the_EARTH: Tear Down the Walls and accompanying live album Faith + Hope + Love. The CD/DVD set We're All in This Together showed up in 2011, with the double disc Live in Miami: Welcome to the Aftermath arriving a year later in 2012. ~ Jason Ankeny & Steve Leggett, Rovi
