Sequel is the ninth studio album by the American singer-songwriter Harry Chapin, released in 1980 (see 1980 in music). It was the last complete album released during Harry's lifetime. A tenth studio album, The Last Protest Singer, made up of material he was working on at the time of his death, was released about six years after he died.
The title song reports further events in the lives of Harry and Sue, the characters in Chapin's hit song "Taxi", and peaked at No. 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (the original went to No. 24). A follow-up single, "Story of a Life", failed to reach the Hot 100 chart (peaking at No. 105), but is historic as it was Chapin's final 45.
The album was re-released under the title Remember When the Music with the addition of two previously unreleased tracks. It was re-released with only the original ten tracks as Storyteller in 1999. It was also remastered in 2001 with four additional tracks.
The Boston Globe wrote that "the album is bogged down in gushing sentimentality, and is ultimately 44 minutes, 35 seconds of maudlin musical waste."[2]
