Omschrijving

In 1985, Suzanne Vega released her debut, garnering platinum status in the U.K and this New York-based singer-songwriter's self-titled album claimed the number 80 spot on Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Best Albums of the Eighties. Vega began her career as an ambitious 'second wave' folk singer in Greenwich Village. Since the inception of that forty-year career, however, she has explore, not only neo-folk music, but electronica, blues, new wave, musical theater, pop and Latin-flavored ballads, such as 'Caramel.' The original songs of her extensive discography highlight heartfelt and humorous narratives drawn from urban glitz and glitter, Greek mythology, and 20th-century literary and cinematic celebrity, but 'the mother of the mp3' also observes people navigating the slings and arrows of everyday life. Much of her catalogue, including the a cappella hit, 'Tom's Diner' and socially-conscious 'Luka, ' have been covered by contemporary artists, but guided by multiple influencers, Vega, herself, has covered songs by Leonard Cohen, Lou Reed and Laura Nyro. With excerpts from the author's own interviews with Ms. Vega, plus insights from renowned producers, American singer-songwriters, label executives, filmmakers, composers and session musicians, On Track: Suzanne Vega brings this profound artist's vivid discography to life.
