Alicia Healey – Live at the Mansion

(Winterblue Music)
I first met Alicia Healey at the 2007 FAR West conference in Vancouver, WA. The various showcases were packing the rooms of the Hilton and I was seeking some refuge in the Puget’s Sound Productions room. Alicia was just about to start singing, so I settled in. I didn’t know her but I’d heard her name mentioned. I’d been learning a lot. When Alicia started singing, I learned a lot more. I learned how a person can come alive in a performance. I was instantly envious, but nonetheless, Alicia has a wonderful ability to project her emotions and feelings through her songs. I felt it that day and I feel it in “Live at the Mansion”. Recorded on April 29, 2006, Alicia, along with Vince Gates performed for a small but enthusiastic audience. All of the energy and fun is there. It’s clear that the audience and Alicia are having a good time. There probably wasn’t enough room for a drum kit, but I love the full band version of “Earthquake” on Alicia’s website (www.aliciahealey.com). I would’ve loved a better recording. Nine of the ten tracks are original. They are solid, tight songs that reach people as individuals. The tenth, “Jolene” by Dolly Pardon, is the sole dim spot in a great album. It doesn’t shine with the rest of the tracks. You write better stuff and I’m kinda fussy where covers of well known songs are concerned, so take this with a grain of salt. Thank you, Vince Gates, for getting this project going. It’s been about ten years since Alicia’s last release. We’ve been waiting far too long for this CD. Alicia, please don’t keep us waiting like that again. (Matthew Moeller)
