%) VISIT AMAZON.COM'S PAGE | Editorial Reviews : With Let It Rain, Tracy Chapman has found an almost perfect platform for her potent voice. She and coproducer John Parish have opted for a muted approach where guitars and tambourines stir among simple, unadorned rhythms. The singer's once boldly strummed acoustic guitar is here replaced by a more constant tidal flow, with handclaps, gospel-tinged choruses, and an open-barreled bass drum marking time. Chapman even goes trip-hopping on 'In the Dark,' a strangely shadowy highpoint featuring her artfully quavering vocal melody. The jumpy interludes on 'Hard Wired' and the chamber interlude of 'Over in Love' (which is reminiscent of the gorgeous interstitial tunes on Hem's debut) add color. This is an awesomely crafted folk-soul creation for seasoned fans and for those who love Beth Orton and Norah Jones.
Buyer Reviews : As I'm writing this review, I'm listening to 'In the Dark', which is very reminiscent of songs from her earlier albums. If it took a couple of months for 'Telling Stories' to grow on you, then let me assure you that you will not have that problem with this album. It took me 2 months to really start liking songs on her last album, but with 'Let it Rain', I can honestly say that on the second listening, I was already hitting the repeat button for 'Let it Rain', 'You're the One', 'In the Dark', and 'Say Hallelujah'. This one will be in my CD player for a while because 'Tracy's Back!'.
