Just realized my copy is pressed on brown transparent. Cant seem to find any mention of this anywhere so I submitted a new release. Interestingly, the label and etchings are identical to this version. If anyone knows anythings more, please reply... really trying to figure this out

A beautiful emotional record, Tracy Chapman's vocal is oustanding, uplifting but also very moving, telling what is an inspirational story although you never quite know if she managed "to be someone".

I love Tracy Chapman, she has an incredibly unique voice and makes beautiful Folk music with a Black perspective. 'Fast Car' is my all time classic Chapman tune and it still sounds timeless today. The combination of that beautiful guitar, inspiring & very moving lyrics and Chapman's hauntingly beautiful voice sends shivers down the spine.
