    • 1985 December 14, Maida Tilchen, Gay Community News, volume 13, number 22, page 8:
      Karen Mackay's Annie Oakley Rides Again is another explicitly lesbian album. It's sprightly, low-key bluegrass in style, befitting Mackay's West Virginian roots, but has a strange, sad tone to it, perhaps because the album was inspired by the sudden death of Mackay's friend.
