She is a giant. One of the highlights of my volunteer studio assistant career is the time we spent transferring "Suzanne Vega" and "Solitude Standing" from the two-inch multitrack tapes to digital. Those tapes gave goosebumps, and the Studer A80 was an 800-pound jewel.
And some trivia:
Tom's Diner was the song used to test Karlheinz Brandenburg's algorithm for MP3. Steve Addabbo, who recorded it, said, "I recorded the acapella version of Tom's Diner up at Bearsville Studios, January 1987. It was in the huge room, we had to gobo her off so I didn't get too much of the big room sound. Since this was a capella, I recorded directly to my digital Nakamichi DMP 100 (basically a SONY F-1 in black) onto a Betamax tape. Just a mono recording. This was the master. I recall she did about 7 takes and we picked either the second or third. We mixed it with Shelly Yakus out at A&M studios in LA. It took about 4 hours to mix it since we were mixing to half inch non-dolby analog tape (Studer 807), we had to be careful of tape hiss and print through."
