Corroboration (album)

Corroboration is a 2001 compilation released on the Festival Mushroom Records imprint, Sputnik. It was the result of a project put together by Kurt Luthy. It brought together indigenous and non indigenous musicians and bands from various genres. The majority of the songs were written for this compilation. It reached #92 on ARIA Top 100 Albums chart. In 2002 it received an ARIA Award nomination for Best World Music Album.

Noel Mengel wrote in the Courier Mail that "it succeeds not just in the way it crosses genres and cultures but because of the quality of the music that results." The Australian's Sandra Bridekirk gave it 4 stars calling it " the most unconventional snapshot of Australian music you could get – miles further down the track than predictable Oz rock samplers". Peter Lalor of the Daily Telegraph also gave it 4 stars callin it "one of the more interesting "project" albums to have come from these shores." In Michael Duffy's 4 star review in The Advertiser he states "this album is pleasing to the ear and an important step forward in the reconciliation process." The Sunday Mail called it "a work of art" saying it "mixes culture with music, heart with soul, black with white, sweet with sour."

Another track, "Bark in the Shadows" by You Am I and Vic Simms, was left of the album for unspecified reasons.
