Mojo magazine have published their end of year review, and the Bobbie Gentry boxset The Girl From Chickasaw County has been chosen as their number one re-issue of the year, ahead of stiff competition from The Beatles and Bob Dylan – hurrah! Journalist Bob Mehr interviewed boxset compiler/producer Andrew Batt and John Cameron the Musical Director of Bobbie’s BBC TV series for the article. The January issue features Kate Bush on the cover, and is on sale now.

The first reviews are in for The Girl From Chickasaw County box set.

Uncut 9/10 “The previously unreleased material offers further fascinating insights… Gentry’s brilliance leaves you lamenting what she might have gone on to achieve.” 

Mojo 4/5 “Shining a dark light on the other Bobbie Gentry…All the (re-mastered studio albums) are reason to invest in this retrospective, but the real clincher is the rare and unreleased recordings.”
