In a nutshell: With the singer-songwriter back in its voguest of vogues since the early '70s, what better time for Suzanne Vega's first album in six years? Revolving around the theme of New York, the city where Vega was raised and still lives, the 11 original songs on Beauty & Crime present Vega's signature
poetry and folk-pop songcraft illuminated by lush orchestral arrangements that are juxtaposed against cutting-edge beats.

Imagine if you will: Walking through the East Village sucking it all in with the donetta of that urban-folkie ish cooing in your ear.
