After the feeble last album "Let It Rain" Tracy Chapman chose a producer who refined their sound. It sounds so compact and powerful, like a held a trio folk / protest-plate can only sound on "Where You Live". Tracy Chapman's typical twists and chords do not sound as fresh as long. To Play: The Blue songs "Don`t Dwell" and "Love`s Prof" and its percussive indictment of today's "America". No further development, but a partially successful continuation of their early albums.
