Issued in late 2008, OUR BRIGHT FUTURE finds singer-songwriter Tracy Chapman unveiling another assured set of light, welcoming folk-pop. As its title implies, the album is a largely hopeful and optimistic affair, with Chapman's warm, wavering vocals perfectly showcased on thoughtful tracks such as "Sing for You" and "Thinking of You." Those reminded of 1980s and `90s Joni Mitchell records will find that notion to be more than mere coincidence--FUTURE is produced by Larry Klein, who worked on many of those Mitchell outings, and brings a similar airy-yet-substantial quality to Chapman's gentle songs.

Our Bright Future album
$8.49 Ultradiscs are mastered from the original master tapes using Mobile Fidelity's proprietary mastering technique, then plated with 24-karat gold and housed in a stress-resistant lift-lock jewel box.
"You Can't Lose What You Ain't Never Had" and "The Same Thing" did not appear on the original version of FOLK SINGER. They were recorded at a separate session in April 1964, three months after FOLK SINGER was released.
The title and cover photo of this 1963 recording were an attempt to cash in on the burgeoning American folk revival, but this is pure acoustic blues. Muddy began his career as a Robert Johnson-style solo acoustic performer, and the tunes on FOLK SINGER hark back to those days. He's accompanied sparsely by Willie Dixon, drummer Clifton James and a young Buddy Guy, who provide a stark, deliberate backdrop for Muddy's ...

Our Bright Future CD music
$12.65 Talk To Me is the title of the latest album from Philipp Fankhauser, the highly regarded blues artist based in Thun, Switzerland, and his first for Memphis International Records. Fankhauser is well known to European audiences but he is also familiar to North Americans as a result of his role as guest vocalist with the band of the late blues great Johnny "Clyde" Copeland. While the bulk of Talk To Me is comprised of l Fankhauser originals it does include two Johnny Copeland compositions and Shemekia Copeland, Johnny's daughter and a renowned star in her own right, penned the liner notes. "Philipp will always be very special to the Copeland family; his music is special for just about everyone," she wrote.The album includes a version of "Members Only," a song that was an R&B hit for Bobby Bland in the 1980s and produced for Fankhauser by Dennis Walker (Robert Cray, B.B. King, Maria Muldaur) with an appearance by the Memphis Horns. Bobby ...
| | Tracy Chapman Where You Live CD (2005)
Our Bright Future music CDs
$6.15 The follow-up to 2002's LET IT RAIN, Tracy Chapman's WHERE YOU LIVE continues in that album's understated vein. As usual, the focus is on Chapman's warm, plaintive vocals, which are always at the fore of her thoughtful folk-rock tunes. The cast of supporting musicians is impressive---renowned session multi-instrumentalist Joe Gore and keyboardist Mitchell Froom are present on most songs here, and Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea turns up on a few tracks. But it's clearly Chapman's show, with most instruments ...
