#91 - Tracy Chapman: the incredible story of a gifted musician before (and after) her iconic duet with Luke Combs
Description
Please note a correction: Tracy Chapman's debut album was released in 1988, not 1987. Also, the track list for this album may have been edited in when I referenced the Crossroad's album. Late-night editing is not without consequences! I fixed these issues and re-uploaded the episode but you may have caught these errors in my first round. -Amy
Thank you for tuning in! On today's episode, we are taking a look back at the life and career of Tracy Chapman. I have loved Tracy Chapman since I was a little kid, I first heard her music while traveling in a (not very fast) car with my mom. You will learn about her early days growing up in a tough part of Cleveland, Ohio from her discovery as a young college student, to her ongoing impact as a professional musician for decades.
