Vega's second album, which replaced the delicate acoustic textures of her self-titled debut with more dramatic arrangements, includes Vega's career song, \"Luka,\" surely one of the biggest hits ever written about child abuse. But it was the energetic folk-rock production of \"Luka,\" thick with ringing guitars and pushed by perky drums, that let the listener luxuriate in a song that suggested the darkness that can lurk behind a neighbor's door. The title tune confronts personal loneliness with a similarly powerful performance, while \"Ironbound\/Fancy Poultry\" makes a downtown landscape sound downright homey. Well-turned tunes like \"Calypso\" and \"Gypsy\" recall the softer textures of her debut. Ironically, Vega's next big hit would come when the English production duo DNA made a dance hit out of \"Tom's Diner,\" a nursery-rhyme tribute to a coffee shop that opens the album. --John Milward\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000002GHB\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 4EKGRJ00607V_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Suzanne Vega\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
