Chapin Tribute Show to Play in Levittown, PA
January 28, 2001
Scott Sivakoff has provided the following information about an upcoming tribute show he will be performing:
On February 10, 2001, I'll be performing the music of Harry, Tom and Steve Chapin at Club Capri in Levittown, PA. Show time is 8 PM! Ticket prices are $5.50 with all $$$ going to World Hunger Year.
There will be some very special guests joining me that night. Harry's original lead guitarist, Ron Palmer, will be there. Additionally, my very good friends, Dave Underwood and Susan Shaw will be helping out on a few time. Dave is an exceptional guitar player and a great singer. Susan sings and plays cello, yep, cello! On top of that, I've just gotten word that several other familiar names are planning to attend!!!!
More inforamtion about the show can be found at http://www.purgatory.com/scott/My_Music/Chapin_Show/ or by e-mailing me.

The Latest Release
|
Sniper & Other Love Songs
[iTunes]
In 1972, Harry released
Sniper & Other Love Songs.
Thirty years would pass before the album would ever reach the CD format. Sniper was finally re-released in June, 2002.
Originally given a working title of Sweet City Suite, the album tells the story of various characters one might run into in
a city. The album features the original studio versions of Chapin classics "A Better Place to Be" and "Circle." But
perhaps more importantly (as those songs are already well-distributed on compilation CDs), the album features seemingly
lost Chapin stories, including "And the Baby Never Cries," "Burning Herself," "Barefoot Boy," and "Woman Child."
Sniper is for the seasoned Chapin fan. New fans would do better to check out
Greatest Stories
Live. But for Chapin fans who have reached the level of the
Dance Band on the Titanic album, this is the next step. Slightly over-produced and having a little of the "forced"
feel that some of Harry's studio albums possess, this album does not capture the powerfully live Harry Chapin. Nonetheless,
it captures Harry's great iconoclastic songwriting--Harry takes the story song to new heights here. But the album works best
for those ready for it; don't buy it until you are ready to appreciate it!
