Tracy Chapman Helped Restore Songwriters To The Spotlight In The '80s. The Multi-Platinum Success Of Chapman's Eponymous 1988 Debut Was Unexpected And It Had Lasting Impact. Although Chapman Was Working From The Same Confessional Songwriter Foundation That Had Been Popularized In The '70s Her Songs Were Fresh And Powerful Driven By Simple Melodies And Affecting Lyrics. At The Time Of Her First Album There Were Only A Handful Of Artists Performing Such A Style Successfully And Her Success Ushered In A New Era Of Songwriters That Lasted Well Into The '90s. Along With 10 000 Maniacs And R.E.M. Chapman's Liberal Politics Proved Enormously Influential On American College Campuses In The Late '80s.
