"Do you ever buy a CD and then find that you are unable to stop playing it? And it becomes kind of an addiction until you almost want to just keep playing it until you get a little sick of it so you can stop? This is one of those CD's. It's beautiful from start to finish. I appreciate the bare, stripped down quality to some of the more emotional songs because these days it just feels like no matter how beautiful an artist's voice is, it gets covered up with too much production.

This CD is quite different from her first one in a way that I found refreshing. It's a little more grown up. I found it remniscent of Joni Mitchell and even Vonda Shepherd (before Ally McBeal). Just straight ahead masterful song writing with a beautiful voice that pulls at you and brings you into her emotional space. So, I guess what I'm saying is...I like it."

"Her newest album showcases the range and diversity of her talents as both a singer and songwriter. The resonance and purity in Alice's voice becomes the focus of her newest songs. The brilliance of this album lies in that each song successfully progresses into the next one to form a cohesive whole. Yet each song has a slightly different influence from jazz to classic Seventies to folk to contemporary singer songwriter. The accompanying acoustic piano and strings do not detract from her indescribably beautiful and soulful voice, whish is one of the strengths of the album. Many tracks are in the same tradition as the song "Northern Star" from her second CD."

Alice just keeps getting better!

"Alice Peacock once again shines on this album! The songs, her voice, and the artful and engaging musicianship shine through. This compliments Alice's voice beautifully. Who I Am is one of those inspiring songs, I can listen to it when I'm having a bad day and am unsure of myself, it brings me to tears. This song is just beautiful! one of the most beautiful lyrics is "In the ways of life and art, I trust the wisdom of my heart"



Who I Am is classic Alice, with the seventies feel, but on a more updated level. The songs are like a snapshot in to Alice's life. If you are a fan, this album will inspire you! My favorite tracks are: Taught Me Well, If You Could Only Se Love, Time, Here I Go Again, Runaway Day, Different From the Rest, Who I Am and Anyone But Me. If you were a fan before this release, you'll be even more of one afterwards!"
