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 all 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.

Great sound Brings back pleasant Memories I am 85 and was a manager of a record chain store and Barry in his era was a must to play instore.
The customers loved him and he must have had huge sales during his era. Submitted by lockw (Victoria Australia) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo This review is for a different format.
Barry does it again I purchased 'The Ultimate Collection' for one song...'Secret garden' Sweet seduction as it's a difficult song to get hold of.
I haven't listened to all of the triple album, but you really can't go wrong with Barry White. Submitted by Ingrid (North West London, UK) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo This review is for a different format.
