It was also re-released on Sony's midprice sub-label Camden entitled Wide Open Spaces: The Collection in 2012.
Critical reception
Playlist: The Very Best of Dixie Chicks received four stars out of five from Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic. Erlewine wrote that "the tracks are sharply selected, making for a good, representative compilation if not quite a definitive one."[1] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the compilation three and a half stars out of five, calling it "a great representation of who they are as artists" while adding "it will also have to serve as a placeholder for chicks fans until their label does eventually get around to releasing a career-spanning ‘greatest hits’ record."[2]
