Michelle Shocked, Joel Diamond, Joe Johnson, Tony Garnier, Eric Parker

Her first US success came with her debut album, Short Sharp Shocked (1988), met with strong acclaim from listeners, on college radio rotations. The debut single, Anchorage, broke into the Billboard Hot 100.

Short Sharp Shocked was the first album of a "trilogy" for Mercury Records. The second, Captain Swing (1989), was described as an album of "swing and big-band music" that "no one expected", promoted with the release of "On the Greener Side", a gender-reversed parody of Robert Palmer's 1986 single "Addicted to Love", in which topless male models performed the motions made famous by the female models in Palmer's video. The trilogy concluded with Arkansas Traveler (1992).
