Description by OLDIES.com:

By 1970, the folk revival had all but ended. Richard FariƱa was dead; Bob Dylan had plugged in. Paths paved by Joan Baez and Judy Collins had led a younger, more introspective generation of songwriters into the woods, while the ethos forged on the lower east side of Manhattan were being reborn in the canyons of California, as songs for seagulls crafted in Joni Mitchell's visage. Ladies From The Canyon examines the world of private folk via the works of 13 unlikely heroines who sang beneath the infrastructure of the music business, playing to coffeehouse chatter and church picnic silence. Each of these Wayfaring Strangers walk in the handmade aesthetic of lyrics scribbled into faded denim, of delicate movements captured and released.
