The two-disc, 30-track ULTIMATE COLLECTION was selected and sequenced by the maestro himself, making it truly the most essential Barry White compilation available. With its generous playing time and personal song selection, the set collects ... Full Descriptionall of the husky-voiced crooner's chart hits, from 1973's sultry, career-defining lover-man rap "I'm Gonna Love You Just a Little More, Baby" to 1999's comeback hit "Staying Power." It also includes key album tracks and the highlights from White's simply gorgeous instrumental easy-listening/soul albums with the Love Unlimited Orchestra (including, naturally, the immortal "Love's Theme"). Hardcore fans may be somewhat put off that THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION presents the shorter single mixes instead of the often-lengthy album versions, but those are already available on the albums' individual reissues. This release features all the punchier radio hits in one place, and serves as a near-perfect career summary of one of soul's most unforgettable artists.
Includes liner notes by Brian Chin.
Digitally remastered by Kevin Reeves.
Producers includes: Barry White, Gerald Levert, Tony Nicholas, Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis.
Compilation producers: Barry White, Harry Weinger.

Ultimate Collection album
 $15.39   
Joao Gilberto is perhaps forever destined to be lesser known to casual jazz fans than his occasional collaborator Stan Getz (whose GETZ/GILBERTO albums introduced the United States to bossa nova) and his ex-wife Astrud Gilberto (whose shy, delicate voice made her one of the most distinctive and beloved jazz vocalists of the '60s). However, true fans of Brazilian music recognize that Gilberto is second only to Antonio Carlos Jobim as a writer and interpreter of traditional Brazilian music and Brazilian-influenced jazz.
These two albums, collected in full on one CD, are among Gilberto's best solo albums. Alternating ...

Ultimate Collection music CDs
$9.59 
Interestingly, Horn rarely takes a solo, but repeats the songs over and over, slightly changing the phrasing and continuously building on the piano to change the emphasis. Every cut is a masterpiece, but the stand out is the title cut. Drummer Steve Williams sets up a strange, repetitive quarter note pattern which sounds like a ticking clock over which Miles Davis' muted trumpet floats and soars as Horn sings and plays piano. The ...
| | Shirley Horn I Remember Miles CD (1998)
Ultimate Collection songs
$12.65
I REMEMBER MILES won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance.
This stunning album is Shirley Horn's loving tribute to her friend and colleague, the legendary late Miles Davis. Davis was so taken by Horn's first album EMBERS AND ASHES that he forced The Village Vanguard to let her virtually-unknown trio open for him during his 1961 run there. Their friendship and admiration for each other's music lasted through the years, and Shirley Horn's 1991 recording YOU WON'T FORGET ME, was one of the last recordings Miles Davis made.
Horn selected mostly ballads from Davis' Columbia Records catalogue for her tribute because, as she explains in the liner notes, Davis liked her to sing ballads, and ballads are Horn's specialty. She can slow down time in a unique and spellbinding way. Her sultry and smoky vocals are ...
| | Earth, Wind, And Fire Essential Earth, Wind & Fire CDs (2002) Limited Edition; Remastered
Ultimate Collection album
$16.09
Additional personnel includes: Ken Yerke, Harris Goldman (violin); Rollice Dale (viola); Dennis Karmazyn Harry Schultz (cello); Fred Jackson Jr., Herman Riley, Jerome Richardson (saxophone); Tommy Johnson (tuba); Harvey Mason, Paulinho Da Costa (percussion); Beloyd Taylor (background vocals).
Recorded between 1973 & 1983. Includes liner notes by Leo Sacks, Virginia Prescott, and William C, Rhoden.
"These songs are as close as we came to perfection," says group founder and leader Maurice White in the liner notes to THE ESSENTIAL EARTH, WIND & FIRE. Given the quality of the music in this double-disc package, it's hard to argue. Remarkable for both its commercial success and its inventive hybrid of funk, soul, jazz, and African folk music (White's kalimba is featured as a solo instrument on "Evil," for example), Earth, Wind & Fire are deservedly regarded as one of the finest ensembles of the 1970s.
A thorough retrospective of the band's evolution and multiple stylistic directions (often achieved within one song), ESSENTIAL spans from the early, earthy funk of "Mighty Mighty" to the disco-flavored "Boogie Wonderland" (with the Emotions). In between ...

| | Go-Betweens Spring Hill Fair CDs (1984)
Ultimate Collection music CDs
$19.89
This remastered edition of SPRING HILL FAIR features a bonus disc with B-sides and rarities.
On their third album, the Go-Betweens added a fourth member--bass player Robert Vickers--to their line-up and this move allowed Grant McLennan to change instruments, adding a second guitar to the band's sound. Opening with the brilliant "Bachelor Kisses" and "Five Words" (the former by McLennan and the latter by McLennan and band co-founder Robert Forster), this record was as critically acclaimed as their previous work.
Three Forster songs, including the stunning "Part Company," follow the one-two punch of the album's opening. Forster, the primary songwriter on the band's earliest recordings, shows that his deeply personal style of ...
