Synopsis

Album Details
Throughout her Career, Ani Difranco Has Given her Own Take on Tired Rock Star Cliches. When Other Artists Answered to Major Labels, She Opted to Start her Own. While Other Guitarists Relied on Electric Heroics, She Pounded on a Strangely Tuned Acoustic. And When Faced with the Task of Releasing a Career Retrospective, Difranco Created Anything but the Traditional "Greatest Hits" Package. Like Everything Else She Creates, Difranco Made this Record to her Precise Specifications, Carefully Selecting 36 Songs from her Voluminous Back Catalogue, Including Tunes from her First Album and her 18th. As a Result, "Canon" Doesn't Play Like a Greatest Hits Package, but an Album That's Arranged and Intended to Be Played from Beginning to End.

"
Ani is still the cream of the crop when it comes to lyrical poetry and acoustic guitar action. I haven't found any lyricist in any style of music that does it better. Watching her play the guitar is often an exercise in trying not to stare dumbfounded at her amazing & unique technique. The fact that she's cute as hell and twice as entertaining & smart doesn't hurt either. You can't go wrong with Ani in general, and this album is obviously no exception, being some of her best, as well as some reworked material even this fan-from-the-start hadn't heard before."
