Editorial Reviews
Grammy-nominated and multi-talented singer songwriter Lisa Loeb takes fans on a colorful journey back in time with the reissue on CD of The Purple Tape, Loeb's first recording, made in 1992. This double disc includes the earliest recordings of several Loeb favorites including 'Do You Sleep,' 'Snow Day,' 'Train Songs,' 'This,' 'Airplanes' and 'It's Over.' In addition to the original tracks from The Purple Tape, the CD version includes a full second disc with live, acoustic performances of 'Snow Day,' and 'Stay (I Missed You),' along with an in-depth new interview with Lisa, where she ruminates on the early days, talks about the songs and the songwriting process and offers up sage advice to the next generation of emerging artists.

Good Stuff,

This review is from: The Purple Tape (Audio CD)
Got mine today. While this isn't as strong as her other releases (& it isn't meant to be, these recordings are very nice acoustic demos), it's very much worth having & a yet another reminder of why LL may very well be the best singer songwriter recording today.
Disc 2 is also interesting & also worth a listen + it has 2 exclusive tracks for us collectors. If you're new to Lisa Loeb, this isn't the place to start, but for fans this is a must have.

Purple Tape Lives,
This review is from: The Purple Tape (Audio CD)
After many years of inquiry, Lisa Loeb was kind enough to re-release the infamous "Purple Tape" tape on CD. Being a long time LL fan and not having the orignal tape I decided to grab it early to get my signed copy and I'm glad I did. Of course the tunes are classic LL and they did a nice job of producing this. What I really liked was the 2nd disc that contains an interview with Lisa that explains the background of every song plus 2 live takes of "Snow Day" and "Stay". After listening to the interview I appreiate the songs and her even more.

(my review for iTunes) ::
This album was originally released only on cassette tape in the early 90's, by lisa herself... before a record company & the major label albums that everyone knows her for. this recording has been in high demand by fans ever since, and lisa has been promising to release it. that day has finally come. if you want just the album, download the first 10 tracks for $9.90. tracks 11-33 are what is on the 2nd disc of the physical release, and are commentary tracks (with the exception of the 2 in-studio tracks at the end). every song is raw, acoustic, just lisa & her guitar... some of her best songs appear on this re-release, in their original form.
