Today’s listening is ’99.9F°’, the 1992 album by Suzanne Vega.
This has to be my favourite Suzanne Vega album!
The whole sonic palette is very ‘Mitchell Froom’ (who produced the album), giving the whole album an interesting and unusual sound.
Full of great tracks such as the title track itself, ‘In Liverpool’ and ‘When Heroes Go Down’.
A thoroughly recommended listen!
p.s. Discogs lists her full name as being Suzanne Nadine Peck Vega Yunqué - can that be right?
This week’s #80sSoundtrackSaturday is Suzanne Vega (feat. the great Joe Jackson) with “Left of Center” (1986) from the awesome Pretty in Pink #soundtrack. #SuzanneVega #joejackson #80s #80smusic #80smovie #boomtownpodcast

Suzanne Vega - 99.9F
Making a second appearance here, because I love the album, but also because listening to Bruce Thomas on Get Happy!! made me want to feature another showcase for his great bass playing.
Mitchell Froom gets a lot of crap for his production style, but as I said last time, it really works here.
It's a pretty rare record, at least on vinyl, and it sounds great on this pressing from Europe.

🎧 Full Disclosure: I pump #SuzanneVega ft. #DNA's "Tom's Diner" into my wee brain at least once a day, sometimes on a loop.
Mood-addicted. There are few "perfect" songs, but this is one.
If you don't know the story behind *this version of the song, it's a good read. Collaboration rules!

"Sorry, Song. Can't take you to dinner—skint. We could go to Tom's Diner. I'll get us a coffee and make pithy observations about the scene in real time.

@trustlozio @EccoSilvia @Fbrzvnrnd la versione dei DNA non era male, ai tempi spaccava, era figlia del suo tempo ma secondo me è invecchiata male al contrario dell'originale che rimane un classico.
Bellissima a mio parere una cover uscita di recente che riesce a reinterpretarla in modo originale:

🎧 #SuzanneVega dropped "Tom's Diner" in 1987 and #British #DJ / #producers #DNA made it funky in 1990. Rather than fighting the "Number One in Europe" funk, Vega blessed the remix and released this film by #GarethRoberts worldwide.
#Remastered last year.
