The Anthology is a double CD greatest hits album of by Australian singer songwriter James Reyne. The album includes tracks from the last three decades.
Reyne said "I've been working as a singer, musician and songwriter for a while now, and feel that it may only be that I've started to grasp how it all works relatively recently. I know I'm a better craftsman now than I was, so welcomed the idea of this Anthology/retrospective of my solo stuff. The first CD includes all the solo "hits" that I've had, but most importantly to me, provides a threshold to the later and more recent songs; tunes that many would never have heard. They are culled from the albums The Whiff of Bedlam, Design for Living, Speedboats for Breakfast, Every Man a King, and Thirteen and I hope, provide an insight into what I've really been up to."
Reyne performed a series of live acoustic shows to showcase ‘'The Anthology'’, in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria.[1]
