"Somewhat of an Anthology" is a limited edition compact disc on the Dacoit label (catalog number 120101) that compiles material from throughout the Slickee Boys' career. With the exception of one live song, every cut on the CD had previously been released, albeit many of them on vinyl records pressed in small numbers (e.g. "Separated Vegetables", the band's first long-player had an initial pressing of only 100 copies). This collection showcases the songwriting talents of the band's rotating membership over the years. It also includes cover versions of songs originally recorded by the Afrika Korps, Buddy Holly, and Alice Cooper.

This album won the 2002 Rock Recording of the Year at the Wammies, the Washington Area Music Association's annual awards show. [ [http://www.wamadc.com/wama/wammies/WAMI-abc-o-s.htm Wama website] Wammie Winners]
