Tracy Chapman

It's been far too many years. I've just re-discovered her after I heard a 14 year old singing in Darwin with much the same voice. I went out and bought a Tracy Chapman CD and humbly offered it to her to listen to. Hope she is inspired by it.

Here are a few great songs:-

Go Girl!

Fantastic artist - wonderful voice. Her debut album is a classic piece of work and one of my favourite CDs. Crossroads wasn't as strong and a bit more stark imho.

First came across TC in a bodyboarding video where "Run" was the track for that segment. A wonderful artist who gets played frequently in our home.

And she has been consistent performer:-

I know little of her work of recent years - I've got some research to do!

Yes. A great first album. She certainly 'burst' onto the music scene...

But she kind of just faded away
