Gretchen Wilson's 2004 debut changed the game for 21st-century country, with tunes like "Redneck Woman" championing both a place for women in neo-outlaw country and a sense of pride that would become a core element of the Nashville mainstream for years to come. This collection documents her ascendance, encompassing not only hard-partying tunes like "All Jacked Up" and the aforementioned smash, but also old-school ballads like "When I Think About Cheatin'.”
