Two geezerhood after, she returned with Girl at Her Volcano, an EP collection of live jazz standards and studio apartment outtakes; with 1984's The Magazine, she made another leftfield turn, teaming with composer James Newton Howard for her slickest, most synth-driven outing to date.

She returned to original material in 2003 with The Evening of My Best Day, an album that verbalized her wrath with contemporary American politics.

Worth Watching: Master of the Internet
This is the best mid-90s retro parody commercial I've ever seen. They must've actually gotten out an old VHS camcorder and set up 15-year-old computers and software to increase verisimilitude... impressive.
After digging around, it looks like these are the same guys that did this mid-90s retro soap opera parody, which has about the same aesthetic.
