Jane Siberry (album)

Jane Siberry is the self-titled 1981 debut album by Jane Siberry. The original vinyl album is out of print and consequently has become something of a collector's item. The album was re-released on CD by East Side Records in 1988.

Siberry did not yet display the new wave pop style that would make her a household name in Canada with her next album, 1984's No Borders Here. Instead, it's a largely folk-pop album, which has been described by critics as "post-punk Joni Mitchell".
