Description

"TALES OF A LIBRARIAN" is the first-ever compilation from Tori Amos. Amos describes the collection as a musical "autobiography" - it was produced by Amos and includes songs chosen by the multiple Grammy Award-nominated artist from her Atlantic career.

The Australian Exclusive version of Tori Amos' greatest hits features a different track list to the U.S. release with an additional bonus track, the new song "Snow Cherries From France". A collection of 20 of Tori's finest moments, tracks not appearing on the U.S. release are "Way Down", "Professional Widow", "Mr. Zebra", "Crucify", "Me and a Gun", "Bliss", "Jackie's Strength" and, as stated above, the new song "Snow Cherries From France".

This limited edition version includes a bonus Region 4 DVD that features songs recorded live earlier this year during sound check of the final show of Amos' summer 2003 North American tour. Performances include "Pretty Good Year," "Northern Lad," and "Honey." The DVD also includes audio remixes of "Putting the Damage On" and "Mr. Zebra" - from the album "BOYS FOR PELE" - which, like the three live performance tracks, were specially mixed for the DVD in surround sound. Accompanying the two audio tracks are images that visually chronicle Amos' career.
