Suzanne Vega - BBC Sessions, Volume 3: In Concert, Dominion Theatre, London, Britain, 6-1-1990

Here's a third album of Suzanne Vega performing for the BBC. Like this first two, it's a BBC concert. This time, it's from 1990.

When I first posted this, all I could find was a partial version that was 38 minutes long and had some issues, such as fake applause added, the wrong song order, and no banter between songs. But a couple of days after I posted it, a commenter named Brian sent me the entire show. This is much, much better. So I completely redid the post with the new version.

In 1990, Vega release the studio album "Days of Open Hand." I had previously posted a 1989 BBC concert by her, but this one differs significantly by including lots of songs from the then-new album. It also includes a great cover of "Beyond Belief," my favorite Elvis Costello song.

The BBC often edits concerts down to an hour or less. But at least once, the BBC broadcast this entire concert. I know this because the first song in the complete version Brian sent me had a BBC DJ talking over the start of the song, mentioning that even the opening act (Brian Kennedy) was broadcast as well. As I often do, I used the UVR5 audio editing program to get rid of that DJ talk. That's why that song has "[Edit]" in the title. 

Two songs near the end, "The Queen and the Soldier" and "Tom's Diner," also were edited. That's because there was some static here and there during those songs, probably from trouble with the radio reception. Luckily, it only affected those two songs, and both of them happened to be acoustic or acappella. Using UVR5 again, I discovered that nearly all the static appeared on the drum track. I simply erased that, since there were no drums otherwise. That's why those two have "[Edit]" in their titles too.

This album is an hour and 18 minutes long.
