Anthology (Carly Simon album)
Anthology is a two-disc career retrospective compilation box set by American singer-songwriter Carly Simon, released on November 5, 2002. Over the course of the two discs, every one her studio albums (up until that point) is chronologically represented with at least one song (not including her just-released Christmas album Christmas Is Almost Here or her 1993 opera, Romulus Hunt: A Family Opera, on which she only actually performs on one track). Simon personally selected all the songs. The booklet features numerous photographs from Simon's archives, as well as extensive liner notes by Jack Mauro, a lifelong fan of Simon's.[2]
