CD Reviews

I love this album

David S. Hillman | Decatur, GA United States | 12/24/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I managed to get this CD from my sister and just listened to it

today. With most folk, blues albums it'll take me a couple of

listens to really like them, but this album was different.

Tracy's voice is powerful and on point. She also has a lot

to say and says it with feeling. I believe the folks who gave

a bad review because the whole album isn't like "Give Me One Reason"

did the album an injustice. These songs are still relevant today

and sound very good even 10 years later. That's saying a lot."

BUY THIS ALBUM FOR "THE PROMISE"

Scott V. Wonders | RHODE ISLAND | 03/28/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I heard "The Promise" over my car radio the day after my mother passed away - I knew it was Tracy Chapman but was unfamiliar with the particular song but somehow it spoke to me. I immediately searched for & purchased this CD and played the song, "The Promise" at my mother's funeral. I cannot tell you just how much it has meant to me...it was as though it was a sign from my mother. The lyrics are incredible as a stand alone poem and so moving when heard through Ms. Chapman's vocals. I have played this CD repeatedly and my affection for this recording as increased."

BRAVO, TRACY, BRAVO!!!

Peter A. Batt | South Korea- Camp Humphreys | 10/12/2002

"Every song on this CD cuts right to the soul. This is folk music tinged with blues and rock and soul...lyrics worth listening to. I only hope Ms. Chapman keeps putting her music out. I believe her negative reviews are coming from hiphopsters and rappers expecting somthing else. Tracy's music is folk. I dread the day where talented singer- songwriters are completely replaced by throwaway commercial [...] music. Make no mistake, each song on this CD is poetry, messages for the listener, pure art. I consider her right up there on the same level as Dylan. If your into quality listening...buy this one."

An emotional journey: not for the weak of heart

T | Northern Cal | 04/03/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Ok, I understand the "Give me 2 reasons" review only because the radio release of Give Me One Reason was a bit of false advertising. But come on people, you can listen to a CD before you buy it now! This is, without question, my favorite of her collection. It is a rare gem that takes you on an emotional journey through the heart and the world. At this Point in My Life is as real as it gets in life. If you can't be this honest in love, then what's the point? The live performance of Promise at Lillith Fair in '97 made me cry and it was the first time I heard this song: my first Tracy Champan experience. Remember the Tinman? I think we all know the Tinman in this life and I wonder if this song refers to mankind. Lastly, I'm Ready is rightfully placed at the end. This song is enlightening and is reason alone to have purchased this CD. "Gonna wake up and know where I'm going...I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me". This is the most beautiful song I've heard from Tracy.

If you LOVE emotional music, buy this one and Tracy's debut album."

Best Tracy Chapman release to date.

Judy | New Mexico | 10/21/2000

"This CD is, in my opinion, Tracy's best work to date. The listener is taken from one emotion to another through Tracy's music. "One Reason" is impossible to sit still to. It has recieved so much air play that most everyone is familiar with it, but there is much more on this CD that deserves as much attention. "Cold Feet", "Smoke and Ashes", and "I'm Ready" are relaxing tunes with a serious message. There is something for everyone on this CD; a little blues, a little easy listening and a little storytelling, all classic Tracy. By far, my favorite offering by Tracy Chapman. A must have if you want to familiarize yourself with the music of this versatile and talented musician."
