at the Paramount Theatre, 911 Pine St., Seattle. Last month, the 41-year-old artist released her seventh CD, “Where You Live.” She kicks off her United States and European tour Wednesday with a Seattle stop at 8 p.m. She’s been steadily producing music – some to mixed reviews – in the 18 years since then. That year, her single “Fast Car” climbed the charts, and her record went multiplatinum and earned her four Grammys. Singer-songwriter Tracy Chapman rose to fame in 1988 with her self-titled debut album and a tour supporting 10,000 Maniacs.
Her attire was the standard, well pressed Levi’s, black shoes, black shirt. Her play on the dulcimer (?) was amazing. As you can see from the list of songs, a relatively mellow show. For the first show of the tour the band seemed very together, a few slight missteps, but nothing major. Tanya, 10/06/05: It was a fine show, the crowd seemed less than focussed at times, but that has been the case with every show I have seen with her at the Paramount.His voice is as smooth and mellifluous as his father’s, with whom he shares an inventive picking style and relaxed sense of melody. She returned to encore with The Cure’s “Lovesong,” played with a world-music groove that lacked the passion of Robert Smith’s tortured vocals.īen Taylor, son of James Taylor and Carly Simon, opened with a too-brief set of pleasant tunes. Chord: The Promise - Tracy Chapman - tab, song lyric, sheet, guitar, ukulele - Chord,Tablature, lyric, sheet, guitar, ukulele song: The Promise. “America” had a political attitude but fell short of saying anything, and “Change” offered a laundry list of tepid platitudes sung on top of a bland chord progression.Īt the end of the show, when “Give Me One Reason,” a straight 12-bar blues, went into double time, the crowd got charged up and Chapman became animated. When she sang “Don’t Dwell,” one of four songs from her new release, “Where You Live,” her voice rose above the bluesy jazz chords with the kind of hypnotic command that Nina Simone once had. Halfway through the 95-minute concert, there was a moment when Chapman seemed on the verge of a musical breakthrough. Most of the time, though, she distanced herself emotionally by playing the reticent troubadour. The bare-bones intimacy of the solo, finger-picked “The Promise,” from 1995’s “New Beginnings,” was her way of returning that love. Chapman is one of those confessional singers who has an intimate bond with her fans, many of whom were not shy about declaring their love. She was backed by a trio that fleshed out the simple songs without coming between her and the audience. “Fast Car” and “Talkin’ Bout a Revolution,” also from that album, outshone the newer material. She opened her fall tour at the Paramount Wednesday night with “Why” and “Baby Can I Hold You,” both from her 1988 debut album. Tracy Chapman hasn’t changed much since she walked onto her first concert stage 17 years ago.
