Boasting 50 tracks across three CDs, BONNIE TYLER - THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION is an in-depth overview of Bonnie's career.Disc One focuses on Bonnie in her 80s and 90s pomp, across six albums recorded for the CBS and Hansa labels. 'Total Eclipse Of The Heart', a transatlantic #1 single as well as a huge seller across Europe, is a natural place to start, and her signature song. Other highlights include 'Holding Out For A Hero' from the Footloose soundtrack.Disc Two turns its attention to original material from the first four studio albums, recorded for RCA Records between 1976 and 1981. The two top ten smashes were 'Lost In France' and 'It's A Heartache', with many more high quality songs to discover. Casual fans will find plenty to delve into.Disc Three looks at Classics and Duets. Bonnie's distinctive voice has been heard on many a standard through the years. She was the first to record 'The Best', later a hit for Tina Turner, and other classic covers featured on THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION include '(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman', 'You Are So Beautiful', 'Don't Turn Around' and 'Piece Of My Heart'. The third disc also features 'Loving You's A Dirty Job (But Somebody's Got To Do It)', recorded with Todd Rundgren, and the top five hit 'A Rockin' Good Way' with Shakin' Stevens.BONNIE TYLER - THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION is an excellent introduction to the career of one of the UK's greatest vocalists. Review: An excellent and great value Bonnie Tyler collection - This three CD compilation is all the Bonnie Tyler a casual fan is likely to want or need, but if you haven't heard a great deal of her work and wanted something to explore her music more, this is an ideal choice. The Ultimate Collection covers the cream of her 70s and 80s output, including her biggest hits (It's A Heartache, Lost In France, Holding Out For A Hero, Total Eclipse Of The Heart) plus a huge amount of massively enjoyable songs. Personal favourites include Faster Than The Speed Of Night, More Than A Lover, Loving You's A Dirty Job (But Somebody's Gotta Do It) (a duet with Todd Rundgren), If You Were A Woman (And I Was A Man) and Here She Comes. Her cover versions of Have You Ever Seen The Rain, Straight From The Heart and Sometimes When We Touch are rather good too. Because Bonnie isn't really a songwriter, the quality of her material very much depended on who she worked with and she had the intuition and good taste to work with some of the biggest names in rock at the time, such as doing a couple of albums with Jim Steinman, who fresh from his massive success with Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell and Dead Ringer albums, which resulted in Total Eclipse Of The Heart and Bonnie's rise to prominence in the eighties. She then went on to work with Desmond Child (who has co-written songs with artists such as Alice Cooper and Bon Jovi) and, fun fact, she recorded the original version of The Best, which Tina Turner covered and went on to have a huge smash hit with, despite it not being that different to Bonnie's. This collection covers all of that era as well as her formative seventies years and, while it may not all be complete gold, the vast majority of the material here is hugely enjoyable and a testament to not only Tyler herself, but all of the superb songwriters and producers she had the good sense to work with.

Me ha encantado este CD de una de las mejores voces femeninas del rock, con su tan identificable y atractivo sello grave y rasgado. La selección de temas y el sonido es impecable. Buen precio y rápida entrega.

Une artiste que l'on connais très peu en France sauf par quelques tubes mais c'est une artiste de grand talent qui sais se servir de sa voix pour vous donner tout les frissons, je conseille ce double cd car il est assez complet mais il y en a d'autres qui vous surprendront autant, alors n'hésitez pas car, c'est un bon investissement et de plus cette chanteuse peux tout chanter, c'est là qu'on s'aperçois de son talent
