THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION is as all-encompassing as a single disc can be in cataloging a three-decade career (so far) that could be filed under any of a dozen or so branches of pop and R&B. (For the complete story, see the four-disc set FOREVER DIANA: MUSICAL MEMOIR.) A sort of Motown blend of Elvis Presley and Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross started out as a singer of amazing torch songs with the most sensual of all girl groups, the Supremes, and eventually became bigger than her name. Since then, she has been as willing to sing the most sentimental of ballads as to take on a new dance beat. And Ross has handled every move with class; she rarely sounds like a pop star stooping to latch onto a trendy new sound, but rather like a seasoned balladeer reaching for a new melody.

THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION starts with five Supremes classics, and then moves on to a solo career that included such disparate hits as the gorgeous MOR ballad "Theme From Mahogany (Do You Know Where You're Going To?)" and the sublime disco treat "Upside Down." It also includes Frankie Knuckles' thoroughly '90s dance remix of the Supremes' "Someday We'll Be Together" (from 1994's DIANA EXTENDED: THE REMIXES), a song that brings both her career and this generous disc full circle.

Be assured that the title here is not remotely hyperbolic; in fact, it's hard to imagine a better single disc Supremes greatest hits collection. Every Supremes song you could conceivably want is here in chronological order, beginning with their first Top 40 hit, 1963's "When the Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes," to 1969's cleverly calculated farewell smash "Someday We'll Be Together."

All of them are in the original glorious mono. This compilation is also a pretty interesting time capsule look at various '60s pop styles; for example, in retrospect, it's hard to think of the Supremes as having ever been remotely psychedelic, but even they got a little trippy with songs like "The Happening" and "Reflections."

Out of print in the U.S.! The Ultimate Collection from Diva Ross and her two Supreme sidekicks is just that....the ULTIMATE Collection! This is the best single-disc compilation on the market by the chirpy trio and features more than a plethora of hits. The world is a much better place because of songs like 'Where Did Our Love Go', 'Stop! In The Name Of Love', 'I Hear A Symphony', 'Baby Love', 'You Can't Hurry Love', 'The Happening' and everything else on this CD. There's 25 great tracks here that say more in three minutes than many artists entire catalog. It's soulful. It's melodic. It's brilliant. It's the ultimate collection. Universal.

Temptations Ultimate Collection CD  (1997)

Ultimate Collection album
CD $10.65  4.3 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
This is part of Motown Records' "The Ultimate Collection" series. With the exception of Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, one would be hard pressed to name a Motown act who went through as many creative shifts as the Temptations. While Wonder's and Gaye's changes of direction were a product of their own creative rebellion against Berry Gordy's brilliant but often formulaic vision, the Temptations seemed to be the label's official "keeping up with the times" artists, starting out as interpreters of Smokey Robinson's silky-smooth sweet soul confections and going on to embrace rock guitars, work with members of Funkadelic, and be produced by Rick James, all while holding onto their trademark vocal style. The length and breadth of the Temptations' career would make it practically impossible for a single-disc career retrospective to be truly comprehensive, and The Ultimate Collection is missing a few essential tracks (most notably "Psychedelic Shack" and ...

Herb Alpert Definitive Hits CD  (2001)

Ultimate Collection CD music
CD $11.15  4.3 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Digitally remastered using 20-bit remastering technology by Doug Sax and Robert Hadley (The Mastering Lab, Los Angeles, California). Before his run at the top of the easy-listening charts, Herb Alpert was already a music-industry veteran, writing and producing hits for Sam Cooke and Jan & Dean. Alpert also deserves a place in history as co-founder and owner of A&M Records, one of the most successful independent labels of all time. A solid 20-track compilation spanning Alpert's career, DEFINITIVE HITS covers the trumpeter/singer/label executive's glory years--the 1961-'68 stretch between "The Lonely Bull" and the Burt Bacharach-penned vocal showcase ...

Stevie Wonder Definitive Collection CD  (2002)

Ultimate Collection music CDs
CD $10.09  4.3 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Missing in action for much of the 1990s, Stevie Wonder is a living legend whose consistent creative output is sorely missed. THE DEFINITIVE COLLECTION provides a snapshot overview of Wonder's stellar legacy starting back in 1963 as a teen musical prodigy with the exuberant "Fingertips Part 2." This jubilant tune, showcasing Wonder's much-touted facility on the chromatic harmonica, is a powerful harbinger of things to come. Along the way are classics that find this Michigan native going from being a one-man Motown hit machine to a young artist whose vision eschewed singles-based sensibilities for album-long artistic statements. Wonder's '60s gems include "I Was Made to Love Her," "For Once in My Life," and "Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours." Of course, his '70s work is just as stunning, particularly socially conscious ...

CD $10.39  4.8 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Recorded between 1964 & 1981. Includes liner notes by Brian Chin. Though not as critically revered as label-mates Smokey Robinson and Stevie Wonder, the Supremes were the most popular Motown act of the 1960s. Not only did the group rack up a string of #1 singles, that, in terms of frequency and quality often rivaled that of the Beatles, they were one of the first black combos in America to truly achieve mainstream white acceptance. In many ways, the Supremes' music represented the Motown sound ...
