Alfie, I'm from Lincolnshire, England. This to me is who does it best. Laura Nyro! New York Tenderberry as; an album cut is just lush. The album has N.Y. running all over it, as much of her work has. A much under rated artist. To me, she is the best as, you say " period! " Yes, I really do like her, her work. Just before Christmas read her book by: Michele Cort - Soul Picinc. Great read. As a young lad growing up in East London, I caught on to the similarities in our locations.

The Velvet Underground
The Ramones
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Interpol
Santigold

In my opinion.

Maybe the Velvet Underground and specifically their 1st album which has references in there to the city.

"Gonna take a walk down Union Square, you never know who your going to find there"

"Up to Lexington, 125, feel sick & dirty more dead than alive"

125 Lexington is an address in Harlem.

When I think of NYC I think of rappers like Biggie Smalls
