Re-release of Gretchen Peters' live album.

All of her three albums are represented here. Her overlooked debut, The Secret of Life, leads the count with four songs, the affirmations of constancy that are Over Africa and When You Are Old, the heartbreaking Circus Girl with its lonely narrator, and On A Bus To St. Cloud, the classic lament for lost love that provided a hit for Trisha Yearwood but which has never sounded as achingly exquisite as it does here.

For fans who've longed to have Peters' own versions of songs she's written for others but never released herself, the show also features her own previously unrecorded versions of You Don't Even Know Who I Am, the tale of a broken marriage seen from both perspectives and covered by Patty Loveless, and, a 1998 Top 5 hit for Faith Hill, a playful The Secret Of Life where a couple of guys in a bar agree that a decent cup of coffee and Rolling Stones records make life worth living.
