Songs That Made This Country Great - 1992 A true greatest hits collection including some stellar Wall of Voodoo work but mostly songs from the three solo albums, rarities and song/film work. From a review of the record in Goldmine..."Not just a tired string of random selections; but an album that hangs together alarmingly well as a full length listen and proves beyond a doubt that Ridgway's efforts over the past decade make him deserving of recognition as one of the most consistently imaginative songwriting talents." 16 tracks.
