Jagmaster33 :
Ani hit her stride in the mid 90's, and by the time she released the albums "Little Plastic Castle" and "To the Teeth" in the latter part of that decade, she became possibly my favorite living musician on the planet. What followed was one of the best albums I've ever heard, "Revelling/Reckoning", and I became convinced that she is the best lyricist in the history of modern music (the only other one in contention with her is Paul Simon, IMO).

But, like so many others, Ani's music inevitably took a downward slide after that. That is, until the album "Knuckle Down", which represented a great return to her unique and creative musical style in combination with her lyrical mastery.

If R/R and To the Teeth are perfect 10's, Knuckle Down is easily an 8 or a 9. Unfortunately, her work since then has been sub-par. Oh well, she still has put out more good stuff in the modern era than anybody else.
