Tracy Chapman-Crossroads

This is her second album which came out a year after her first. Similar in style and content to her first she was criticized at the time for remaking her first record. I like this better than her first.Hearing these songs brings me right back to the time when me and my wife were having some problems. She would play this record or a cassette tape I made for her from the record. Songs like “Bridges”,”Be Careful Of My Heart”,and “This Time” seemed to echo my wife’s thoughts and feelings.I believe these songs helped in the healing process. I haven’t listened to this album in a long time and now “Bridges” is stuck in my head. I bought her next three records on cassette and CD but thy don’t compare to the intensity of her first two.
