roadknight's first compilation album, "living in the land of oz", appeared in 1984, which included her version of the title track – a cover of ross wilson's track for the 1976 film, "oz". robert christgau rated the album as b+ and felt that "she musters an impressively gruff blues timbre and on occasion some rudimentary swing, i'm not convinced she always goes flat on purpose, and when she emotes she may strain the credulity even of those who set their standards by nick cave and olivia newton-john."
