Music From The North Country – The Jayhawks Anthology is a compilation album by The Jayhawks, released in 2009.
An expanded version was also released with a DVD of videos and a disc of demos, b-sides, and out-takes.
Writing for Allmusic, music critic Mark Deming wrote "If you've never had the pleasure of listening to the Jayhawks, this collection is a marvelous place to start, and fans will be reminded of just how much good music this group made, and how well it has stood the test of time." Stephen M. Deusner of Pitchfork Media was less enthusiastic about the release, writing that the compilation "traces their story from their beginnings as a struggling local act to their final chapter as a struggling national act." and "After 'The Man Who Loved Life', Music From the North Country falters and never recovers."PopMatters wrote of the album, "Whether as a single or deluxe edition, it’s clear from the contents of each that the Jayhawks are a more than worthy band for anthologizing."
