Mary Chapin Carpenter
One thing is certain: Mary Chapin Carpenter has heard the sound of the new Nashville. She brings the electric guitars and she brings her Martin; she allows the mix to bring up those drums and basslines. She's no longer afraid of rock & roll as long as it blends with her brand of folkish country. After years of walking the outside, despite a hit ...

This album serves as one of the signposts that contemporary country would not only aspire to, but actually become in the 21st century.

Mary Chapin Carpenter's heady star continued to rise with 1994's Stones in the Road, one of her most introspective collections, as searing in its way as Rosanne Cash's Interiors. In order to consolidate that success with her follow-up, A Place in the World, Carpenter returned to the looser, more rock-sounding Come on Come On for inspiration -- a ...

With the release of her debut album Hometown Girl, Carpenter emerged as a new strong voice in the folk revival of the late '80s. Her songwriting skills are apparent here, and her lyrics read ...

The asterisks following the words in the title to Mary Chapin Carpenter's seventh album of new material, Time* Sex* Love*, hide more words: the full title is "Time Is the Great Gift; Sex Is the Great Equalizer; Love Is the Great Mystery." If that sounds a bit overdone, it accurately introduces a collection given over to big statements. After four ...

Although the sounds may vary between pop-soul and adult contemporary, 1995 Grammy Nominees comes off as simply a fine collection of mainstream pop/rock, most of it fairly popular. Even if some of the songs weren't hits, it's more a reflection on narrowly defined radio formats than quality; the overall musical picture is pretty cohesive here. Some ...
