Almost forty years after cutting a first, tentative 'solo' single and three dozen years after crafting an acclaimed debut album, Anne Kirkpatrick, has painstakingly drawn together, as Annethology, the essence of her impressive and admirable body of work - a long-awaited 'Best Of' ranging across a wide musical terrain. Selected from her 13 album releases from 1974 through to 2010. a recording artist since the age of 12 Anne, daughter of revered Australian country music pioneers Slim Dusty and Joy McKean, staked her claim early as a woman of distinctive voice. Her albums, beginning with 1974's earthy Down Home and proceeding through to what music historian Glenn A. Baker described as the "creatively courageous" Showman's Daughter album (of recent times) have demonstrated a gradual, comfortable evolution and her own light on the hill to aspiring female country performers. There's been myriad accolades along her way - six Golden Guitars, a couple of Mo Awards and, honoring Out of the Blue as 'Best Country album', a coveted ARIA Award (in a year when she edged out the top male stars of the day - Keith Urban, James Blundell, Graeme Connors and John Williamson). Early this year she became the 39th artist (since the great Tex Morton in 1976) to have been listed on the Australasian Country 'Music Roll of Renown'. with this new Annethology release, one is held in thrall by the artistry of a woman with an innate understanding of the essential qualities which can render truly great country music emotionally overwhelming.
