85 for the year of 1972.īut “Taxi” had not been expected to do well, especially since it ran nearly seven minutes in playing length (6:47), while most A.M. Billboard would also rank the song at No. Chapin also had a supporter in WMEX-Boston radio DJ, Jim Connors, who helped push “Taxi” up the pop charts – lasting 16 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No.24. It included “Taxi,” and both the album and single had successful chart runs for about six months, each selling more than 1 million copies. Elektra won in the end, and Chapin got free recording time as part of his deal.īy March 1972, Chapin released Heads & Tales, his first studio album. Only months before, in November 1971, Chapin had signed a big recording contract after something of a bidding war had broken out over signing him between Columbia’s Clive Davis and Elektra’s Jac Holzman. In any case, “Taxi,” and the Carson show appearance that spring of 1972, helped launch Harry Chapin into national prominence. But apparently, the chemistry with Carson was for real, as during his career, Chapin would appear on Carson’s show more than a dozen times. Reportedly, it was the first time in the show’s history that Carson had brought a performer back the very next night for an encore performance. In fact, at the time, Johnny Carson himself was so taken with Chapin’s performance that he invited him back to perform the following night. His appearance was followed by viewer phone calls and telegrams sent to NBC praising the performance.
And on the Carson show that night, Chapin’s performance wowed the late night audience. “Taxi” is a song filled with hard-luck poignancy, life-lived serendipity, and what-might-have-beens.

On Carson’s show that night, Chapin performed his song, “Taxi,” about a cab driver who picks up a female passenger whom he discovers, after a few looks in his rear-view mirror, is a long lost love from his youth. But nationally, he was virtually unknown. Harry Chapin was then a folk rock singer-songwriter who had been playing New York City nightclubs with his small quartet and receiving some local notice.

In those pre-cable, pre-internet days, with only three major over-the-air TV channels, Carson’s late night show had a good share of the viewing audience. It was sometime in early spring of 1972 that a little-known American musician named Harry Chapin made a national TV appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. *** Selected by our editorial team.A taxi cab at work on the nighttime streets of some anonymous city. ** Single print order can either print or save as PDF.
