Fabulous.......2007-02-27

This Cd is terrific. I first heard one of the songs on this CD on XM radio, The Blurgrass Station. Not only was the song that made me order the CD great but there are many great songs on this CD, She is truly a talented singer and I can't wait to hear more from her.

Great New Bluegrass Artist.......2006-10-28

For those of us out here who love good bluegrass, this is one of the best new talents I have heard. Listen closely. Who do you hear? I'ts Alecia Nugent, of course. But maybe just a little Rhonda Vincent and some Patty Loveless, too. That can't be a bad thing. Love her.

The Lady Can Sing........2006-08-14

I had never heard of Alecia Nugent until I came across her first CD a month ago while browsing in Barnes and Noble. I was taken aback by the quality of her voice and purchased the CD. After listening to it, I knew I wanted to hear more of this woman with one of the most beautiful and natural voices I'd heard. This her second and only other CD is even better than the first. With the possible exception of "Breaking New Ground", every song is a keeper. Which is a rare find since it seems like most albums of new music today have a couple of good cuts followed by dull filler songs. Ms. Nugent is a wonderful ballad singer and this album highlights her talent. The highlights include "It won't be me", "God knows what" and "I cried all the way to Kentucky." If you like "slow songs" that are expressions of genuine emotion, you'll listen to this album over and over. This is not pure Bluegrass although the fiddle and the banjo are ever-present. And it is head and shoulders above the pablum that is coming out of the Nashville country scene these days. I'll be surprised if this one doesn't win an award or two even though it bucks the trend of the cookie-cutter songs that fill the airwaves. Can't wait for Alecia's third one.

Great new voice in bluegrass music........2006-07-02

I have listened to the whole cd, and I really enjoyed it.Of interst to me was the song"I Cried All The Way To Kentucky",not just because I live here, but the second part which goes,"I laughed all the way back".The song is about the passing of an uncle,and how she cried all the way to the funeral, but laughed all the way back home because she remembered how funny he was.I was impressed by her version of Carl Jackson's "Breaking New Ground", who also produced the cd.

Great music.......2006-03-24

This CD meets all of my criteria for a great CD. First, a bunch of great pickers: Rob Ickes from Blue Highway, Adam Steffey, an original member of AKUS & now w/ Mountain Heart & a bunch more. Second, songs that you can turn up loud in your truck & sing along with. Third, lyrics that you can understand. Fourth, simplicity - in the songs selected, the production, the singing of Alecia & the lack of hype in marketing - no marching bands or midgets dressed in shiny suits.
One personal gripe: "Letter from Home" is a song on the CD. The words have been changed to reflect Alecia's background in Louisiana (w/ co-songwriting credits given to Carl Jackson) when in fact the song was written in 1988 by Jennifer McCarter, one of the McCarter sisters reflecting their upbringing in East Tennessee. I would have liked to see some attribution given to the McCarters. Better yet, an invitation to one or all three to sing w/ Alecia. That would have been really cool!
Putting that aside, one last urgent plea to Carl Jackson, Alecia Nugent & others of a similar ilk: while Nashville is spinning off in weirder & weirder directions, please, please keep making music just like this.

Album Description

Alecia Nugent is the stunning debut CD by one of the most powerful new voices in bluegrass. Her unadorned yet passionate style and rare ability to make a song her own place her among the finest bluegrass singers of today. Produced by Grammy® nominated producer Carl Jackson and with musical support from Rebecca Lynn Howard, Rhonda Vincent, Ron McCoury, and Ben and Sonya Isaacs, Alecia Nugent is a bluegrass album that is startling in both its purity and depth of soul. "Alecia Nugent possesses one of the most honest, refreshing, and believable voices I've heard in many years. I truly believe she is destined for female vocalist and album of the year awards." - Eddie Stubbs, WSM Grand Ole Opry Announcer

Very smooth bluegrass....maybe too smooth?.......2007-04-16

I bought this CD based on the reviews here at Amazon, and overall, I'm glad I did. Alicia is young bluegrass artist with an amazing voice and I'd be surprised if she doesn't go on to have a great music career.

Why not 5 stars? My only complaint is that the record is a bit too smooth. Very well produced by Carl Jackson, who accompanies Alicia on at least one song, and produced the record. He's a fan, no question about that. But there's a sameness to the songs and I find myself wanting a somewhat harder edge. But that's probably a personal taste and many will no doubt be amazed as the virtuosity of her studio players and a wonderful country voice.

Alecia needs to take voice lessons.......2007-03-19

Alecia's voice sounds harsh and does not blend well with the music. Unlike other traditional bluegrass artists such as Rhonda Vincent and Claire Lynch, Alecia's voice is quite raspy (and low) and just does not sound good w/ the bluegrass style of music. She needs to take voice lessons or choose a different style of music. When she attempts to hit the high notes her voice sounds screechy. When she harmonizes, it does not sound so bad, but when she's singing alone, it does not sound good at all. The only song that sounds good on the album is "You don't have to go home" and that is only because it is a song where others are harmonizing with her...and this covers her mistakes. The overall album is crummy for a bluegrass album. Furthermore, her song arrangements are rather mediocre and there just isn't anything that grabs your attention. For a good bluegrass album w/ good background music and outstanding vocals, try Dolly Parton's "Little Sparrow," "The Grass is Blue", or "Halos and Horns." You could also try Rhonda Vincent (though not as good as Dolly Parton). Claire Lynch and Dale Ann Bradley are good bluegrass singers too. Carrie Hassler and Hard Rain released a wonderful bluegrass album about a year ago and she just about tops in the bluegrass music industry. She has the prettiest voice and it sounds so beautiful w/ the bluegrass music that she sings. If you were only buying 1 album, I would buy Carrie Hassler first. After Carrie Hassler, the second best would be the three Dolly Parton albums I've mentioned above. Claire Lynch and Dale Ann Bradley have good sounding albums too...but only if you have extra money to spend. They are not the best...if you want the best, get Carrie Hassler, Dolly Parton, and Rhonda Vincent. Do not buy Alecia's album...it is a complete waste of money.

Best Debut Album Since ..........2006-08-23

This first album for Alecia is a winner. No weak songs. Good mix of bluegrass, gospel and country --- all "heart" music. Alecia's voice is nothing short of stunning and the songs are chosen to flatter it, as they should be. Her range is remarkable. She can go low like no one since Patty Loveless --- without sounding forced at all and never missing a note --- alternating between a plaintive cry and an agressive, confident, throaty trill. And here's a secret: her second album is even better.

As Good As It Gets.......2005-07-23

There isn't a weak track here, and the voice is powerful, smooth, and soulful. She clearly merits the favorable comparisons to Rhonda Vincent, who appears on the CD. I heard her live at the Grand Ol Opry singing "Paper and Pen" and she sent chills through the audience, receiving an incredible, screaming/stomping ovation. Absolutely electric. So where's the next CD?

Sweet and Beautiful.......2005-04-12

Alecia Nugent is one of the attractive voices heard on bluegrass radio stations. Her style of singing; depth of soul, and refreshing voices adds strength to her songs of love and lost love. Her youth appearance makes her very appealing to a large number of younger listeners. I'll Stay Around, Think of What You've done, and You don't Have to Go Home, are some of the finest songs of this audio CD. Musical support from another young talent Rhonda Vincent and Lynn Howard makes the recordings even more enjoyable. If you are new to bluegrass music and one who is interested to listen to bluegrass you must check this CD out.

Though the smoky alto of this Muscle Shoals native is rich with promise, the debut album by 17-year-old Alecia Elliott suffers from a split personality. Much of the selection is diva-esque balladry, with the Titanic-sized emoting of "I'm Waiting for You" and "That's the Only Way" making Elliott sound old beyond her years. Some of the rest is kid's stuff, from the cloying social conscience of "I Don't Understand" to the perky funk of the title hit to the Shania-in-training "You Wanna What?" (one of two songs on the album that Elliott helped write). Yet, on the album-opening "Some People Fall, Some People Fly"--cowritten and previously recorded by Matraca Berg-- Elliott shows how she can soar with a song that suits her. --Don McLeese

Customer Reviews:

Elliot's Alright.......2007-06-26

This is a fun album of light pop-ish country. Alecia has a good lower voice that has a nice timbre to it. Her singing is worthy; too bad we haven't heard more from her. Good songs:

Some People Fall, Some People Fly

Don't Understand - singer muses on pain and evil in world and how come it happens, what's the point?

I'm Diggin' It - deep bass groove, makes the listener groove

You Wanna What - snappy tune with attitude, is a retort to a guy who wants to go too far too fast.

A fun listen in general. No song is dull.

Nice enough.......2006-06-06

I purchased this album when it first came out after I saw Alecia Elliot's music video for "I'm Diggin' It" and the song itself was refreshing to me. The rest of the songs are also quite enjoyable, but not "amazing."

1. "Some People Fall, Some People Fly" - This is a nice introduction to the new artist(at the time), Alecia Elliot. The song fits her voice and the it has a good message. One of the best songs on the album. 9/10

2. "I Don't Understand" - This song doesn't do much for me, and I don't expect a lot of other people to "dig" this. I guess I just see Alecia trying to act older by singing about mature subjects when she's more appealing when she's young and sings fun music, but not bubblegum pop. 5/10

3. "I'm Waiting For You" - Now Alecia really does sound wise and heartbroken-experienced (or longing for love) beyond her years. Her emotion and voice is very convincing on this track. I don't get the critics when they compare this song to "Titanic" or Celine Dion...I think this is just a wonderful ballad that a young woman shines on. 10/10

4. "Ain't No Ordinary Love" - Yes! This is a nice mature teenage sounding song and it fits Alecia's voice nicely! It's a feel good song and you can picture her going over to a choir and preaching/singing to them and the choir clapping and singing along haha, that's great. 8/10

5. "Every Heart" - This is great vocal for Alecia. She sorta sounds like Bonnie Rait and the beginning. This isn't the best song on the album, but when you get sorta tired of the rest of the songs after listening to them over and over, this song is very refreshing and likeable. 8/10

6. "I'm Diggin' It" - This was the song that made me want to get the album, and now that I re-listen to the album, it isn't even the best song on the album! Which is a good thing! It's a fun song for a mature teenager to be singing. 9/10

7. "That's The Only Way" - A really nice ballad and it fits her voice well. Her voice really sounds convincing as if she's actually talking to her "guy" when she says "I would tell you I don't know." The song is actually a good vocal for her! 8/10

8. "Say You Will" - This is my FAVORITE song of the album! Her voice soars and melts your heart like butter during the chorus! When she sings, "You don't have to worry, this emptiness is something only you can fill" can just make you gush! haha 10/10

9. "You Wanna What?" - Haha, yeah I can get when people refer this song to Shania Twain, but I think it's a fun song that she should be allowed to sing at her age. The way she says, "You wanna what?!" is soo hilarious lol! 9/10

10. "Stay Awhile" - Not one of my favorites, but it's sort of like "Every Heart," so it can be refreshing at times. 7/10

11. "Some Say I'm Running" - This song is very nice. A nice ending to an album too. I just recently found out that this song was previously recorded by Martina McBride I think? I forgot who, but I think I prefer Alecia's version just because she can really sing a story. 9/10

good cd...some nice tracks.......2004-08-15

fave songs:
some people fall
im waiting for you
thats the only way

i enjoyed this cd....i do agree her voice could mature a bit more but the style is sweet

Album full of enjoyable melodies.......2004-03-06

I like EVERY song in this album, which is rare because albums usually have one or two songs that miss. But there are no misses on this album. Every song has an enjoyable melody.

This is certainly not a stellar album in terms of musicality or quality. The songs are simple, nothing too deep nor fascinating. So don't expect to hear a Trisha Yearwood caliber of songs. Instead, expect a nice, simple, enjoyable album to listen to.

Love every minute of it!.......2002-09-07

I'm Diggin' It is a mix of country and pop. The songs on this cd are upbeat and groovy. The album definitely has a country sound to it, though. My favorites are Ain't No Ordinary Love, and I'm Diggin' It. The rest of the cd is good, too. It's the kind of album that is very enjoyable. I'd recommend this album because it's fun to listen to!

Very nice.......1999-12-13

I heard this song for the first time ever on GAC (Great American Country), and automatically thought, "This girl has somethin' goin' for her." I give her props for the gutsy spin-off of the debut vidio of Brittney Spears. She is making a new name for country music. With more artist's like her, country will draw a younger croud. She should keep up the good work.

GREAT SONG!.......1999-12-04

I loved this song. I just saw the video on GAC and it was great. I want this single really really bad for Christmas. She is, like everybody else has said, the Britney Spears of country. (Although in my opinion it isn't really country.)

big hit.......1999-11-30

This song is soooooooooooooo awsome. I had heard it on the Disney Channel and on CMT a few times and i loved. it automaticlly became my favorite song and i had only heard it like once! i bought the cd right away and i hope she becomes as big as Shania. This girl is like the Britney Spears of country music!
