The UK series that this title comes from features some really badly compiled collections. The Evelyn King one is horrible. When I heard they were doing one on Dionne I worried it might be another missed opportunity. I was wrong. It's fantastic. It features all of her major and minor Arista hits and more besides. The fact that all five studio cuts from Hot Live and Otherwise are here is a miracle. Sure I would have liked some of the live cuts as well as some from the Brazillian album but these are small points. This is the first in depth look at Dionne's Arista years and I love it. You'd be nuts not to with these hits!

As others have commented this is a great no frills package for those of us who did not invest in much of Dionne's Arista material from the 80's and early 90s. To be honest, growing up in the 80's, I felt that Dionne's Arista years were kind of so -so, but now at 40, I am surprised how much I resonate with these performances. Keep in mind, the material presented here typifies the lite FM/smooth jazz/corporate music sound that "blanded" out much of the 80's and 90's, so the music is far from edgy and/or innovative. What makes this package special, in my mind, is how it covers not only the big radio hits but also focuses on the specialists cuts off her lps. Dionne is a consumate performer, really an artist -- she has a timeless and sophisticated voice that elevates all the material she sings. I do wish there were selections from off the Brazilian cd she did which is my favorite from her Arista years. Nonetheless, I love Dionne and I am really enjoying this colection. It is really such a bargain at the price. Highly recommended.
