Tracy Chapman
Comment:
From the moment she appeared on the pop culture radar, Tracy Chapman smashed the stereotype for what was expected of acoustic-guitar-toting troubadours, creating a sound that was warm and inviting, but different from anything that had ever fallen under the "folk" umbrella before. At the dawn of 1988, she was an unknown 23-year-old kicking around the Boston folk scene; by the fall she was a phenomenon with a #1 album and a spot on the historic [i]Amnesty International[/i] tour alongside Springsteen and Sting. She's always been able to tackle the political [i]and[/i] the personal head-on, sometimes both at once. From her self-titled debut to 2008's [i]Our Bright Future[/i], we've included every color from Chapman's palette to paint you a vivid portrait of her worldly-wise but heart-smart work.
