180g Audiophile Vinyl!
After a limited self-financed release, this self-titled album can be seen as the proper debut by Indigo Girls. The album - featuring hit "Closer To Fine" - immediately boosted them up the charts, earning them a Grammy back in 1989, eventually reaching platinum in 1991. Featuring the complementing songwriting of Emily Saliers and Amy Ray and guest vocals by R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe on "Kid Fears", the album is a showcase for jangling folk-rock, beautiful balladry and poetic lyrics.
In the wake of the new acoustic song-based styles of Suzanne Vega, Tracy Chapman and 10,000 Maniacs, Indigo Girls would manage to garner respectable mainstream success and maintain their rabid core following throughout the three decades after this release.
