"Suzanne Vega plays guitar herself. She loves the acoustic guitar and has been playing it since the beginning of her career. She has also used guitars from different brands such as Guilds, Furchs, 1940s Martin, and some early Yamahas". [Chatbot] I remember she played guitar when I saw her around the same time, in mid-80s
Her mother has some German/Swedish ancestry.
"Queen and Soldier" was my introduction to her, and remains my favorite of hers. I think it is her best. It somehow reminds me of ELP's "Lucky Man".
Great marathon y'all!

Thanks, Nick! I assume this got blocked on You Tube after a month or so? I was thinking about requesting a part 2, but if it’s likely to get blocked I’ll switch to nominating the amazing album 99.9 F the next time around. You’ve only heard one song and Lex hasn’t heard anything from that album! I appreciate your enthusiasm for Suzanne, which is shared by many!
