Mary Chapin Carpenter - Come On Come On

Come On Come On isn't just Mary Chapin Carpenter's most popular album, with sales of 3 million copies. It's also a contemporary country landmark. No less than seven of it's songs became country hits: "I Feel Lucky," "I Take My Chances," "Not Too Much to Ask," "The Hard Way," "He Thinks He'll Keep Her," and two inspired covers, of Dire Straits' "The Bug" and Lucinda Williams' "Passionate Kisses." More importantly, though, this 1992 release pointed the way towards what country music would become in the 21st century with it's savvy seasoning of pop and soft-rock sounds into a more personal style of country songwriting from a female point of view. If you're thinking that sounds familiar, you're not wrong; Come On Come On's prodigious commercial prowess isn't the only thing this record has in common with the early work of Taylor Swift.
