ALICE CLARK: "I KEEP IT HID" (1972)

Alice Clark

Click above to hear "I Keep It Hid."

I knew this article would be difficult to write, as there is just simply no information out there on this lovely lady of soul. Alice Clark's lone LP is an absolute classic among soul listeners, but where Clark came from, and where she's been since are a complete mystery. Her recording of Jimmy Webb's "I Keep It Hid" (also recorded by the post-Ross Supremes, and later by Linda Ronstadt) is a soaring piece of melancholy. Clark's vocals show both strength and vunerabilty.


Where is Alice Clark now? I wish I could tell you. If anyone out there knows, please clue me in!  In the meantime, we can still enjoy Clark's amazing LP (more songs will be featured in future blog posts.) The fact that Alice Clark didn't become a bona fide superstar is one of the great mysteries, and tragedies, of recorded music.

  3. I am so proud and happy to be here to share this remarkable testimony, wonderful and extraordinary, I just can't believe now my ex-husband is here with me begging for all his wrong doings, telling me how empty he felt all the while he was away, he left me and caused me so pain after a divorce that occurred 5 months ago. And this whole miracle happened immediately after I contacted Dr. Egwali for help, I am the happiest woman in the whole world today i would say' having him again by my side. It is a miracle for me and my family and eternal pleasure and merriment. I am so happy now and I do not know how much to express my gratitude and appreciation to Dr.Egwali. I would strongly recommend him if you need immediate help as it is guaranteed.
