CD ReviewsWoah! Allan Ẹghan | 08/21/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "I'm not sure what I was expecting since I'd just heard Allison's name. And in the Jazz, Blues, Rock, and Pop area? I didn't think that it would fly, since I'm not so much a fan of the first three genres. But what a voice! Sea of a Million Faces, Secrets, and a Murder of One really caught my attention, musically and with Allison's soulful, powerful mezzo-soprano. How she plays it; powerful and brassy one moment, soft and mellow the next. She really has a lot of soul in her voice! And the lyrics have much meaning to them, and she's actually written some of these songs? That amazes me! And I like the way that she interacts with the audiance in between songs; she sounds very humble (but that's just my perception), which I like. She looks to have more talent than certain "singers" (Britney Spears to name one). I can't wait to see which direction that Allison takes!" Haunting and beautiful Sarah Mulchand | New York, NY | 07/06/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Allison Crowe has the voice, the soul, and the ability to express herself in a manner that gives one chills. This live album of Ms. Crowe's perfomance Victoria BC's Conservatory of Music, both a combination of her original songs and a ecelectic mix of covers only left me eager for more. The album is described as "a range from roots & blues through folk, pop/rock, jazz and Broadway" which is entirely accurate. There are songs on this album that cover every mood, every musical interest. While I love the entire collection, I would have to say that my favorites are "Sea of a Million Faces", "Secrets", "I Dreamed a Dream" (from Les Miz..amazing!), "Whether I'm Wrong", "Imagine" and the classic "Me and Bobby McGee". If you could only buy two new albums of this year, it would be this and Ben Lee's "Awake is the New Sleep"." Fantastic K. Menzies | 09/25/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "Allison Crowe's voice is sublime and perfectly complemented by her strong, emphatic piano-playing style. The wide and interesting range of cover versions here are like the best literary translations - she turns them into almost entirely new works! The album only grows on you with repeated listens while the excellent Sea of a Million Faces shows Allison's bold, feisty humour."
