Ultimate Hits is the second greatest hits album by Australian country musician Lee Kernaghan. It was released in September 2011, peaked at No.8 on the ARIA chart. The album was certified gold in 2013.[1]

Kernaghan invited his fans on Facebook to help him select the tracks for this album.[2]

While promoting the album, Kernaghan said; "It's my mates out there that have put these songs on the map. The people who have come out to the shows, bought the records and made these songs a part of the soundtrack of their lives. This is the part of being in music that pulls on my heart the most and makes all the highs and lows worthwhile."[3]

Reviews

[edit]

Jon O'Brien of AllMusic gave the album 3.5/5, saying; "Ultimate Hits, a 42-track compilation selected by his fan base, is therefore the ideal opportunity for those looking for the best that the country scene down under has to offer to see what all the fuss is about". He added "With his authentic tales of life in the outback and championing of the late Aussie country legend Slim Dusty, it's easy to see why his traditional brand of blue-collar country-rock has struck a chord with homegrown audiences". He concluded by saying "It's a solid collection of no-nonsense country-rock anthems proving that his unparalleled success is more than justified."[4]
