It's always nice to read and hear what other people think and say about an artist rather than listen to their own claims, particulary if it is written by writer for a newspaper who has attended a concert and witnessed for himself and experienced the audience reaction to a performance. That's why these reveiws are so important.

One man. One guitar. One incredible concert. ... The lone artist had a beautiful voice and a manner that made him instantly likable. ... Sometimes when an artist asks an audience to play a role, the reaction is one of hesitancy. This was not the case Friday. People readily joined in and seemed to take great pleasure, particularly in the singing. Peterson made them feel comfortable. So did the music. At concert's end, he was presented with a standing ovation."

"Probably for the first time in the 60-year history of the Concert Association, the audience enthusiastically participated in a sing-a-long with Peterson."

"We've just had our opening concert of the 97-'98 season, a roaring success with Carl Peterson! He was wonderful...so friendly, so down-to-earth, so accomodating! Our people loved him! ... He wandered around the lobby visiting with folks, ... and everybody enjoyed it. ... Heck of a fine evening! All 500 of the programs we ordered were gone, many times that doesn't happen."
Susan Tuft, President, Concerts Association, Burley, ID

"Sweet may not be the correct term to describe his concert, but it was just that! ... As a single performer, Carl proved he could carry our auditorium which can seat 2000 people."

"Scottish singer Carl Peterson was the stellar attraction for the opening night of Lake City Community Concert's 35th season held at the Alfonso Levy Performing Arts Center. Peterson won the hearts of the standing-room only audience..."

"There is always such delight in hearing and watching a true professional with his masterful stage presence and infinite good humor. Not to be negated is Mr. Peterson's wonderful voice and his expertise as a guitarist. Each song was prefaced with a story, historical or whimsical, delivered in such a way as to capture the hearts and sensibilities of the concert goers. ... Interesting to this reviewer were the glimpses of history and origins of songs. Mr. Peterson made them all so interesting as well as melodic. The artist closed the program with the anthem recognized as the national anthem of Scotland, :The Flower of Scotland." Although he commented that it was not necessary for us to stand during the playing, we were moved to stand in tribute to a beautiful country so well represented by Carl Peterson."
