by
Olivia Newton-John
UTV Records' Magic: The Very Best of Olivia Newton-John is the best compilation ever assembled on Newton-John's career, largely because it does cover her entire career, hitting every major point from her early-'70s soft country-pop hits, like "I Honestly Love You," through her star-making turn in Grease, selections from Xanadu, up to the Physical ...

Olivia Newton-John
At two discs and 40 songs in length, Gold easily bests 2001's Magic or 2002's Definitive Collection. The compilation covers all phases of Olivia Newton-John's career, from her early years of country-tinged AM pop to her time in the pop spotlight with Grease and Xanadu and all the way to her more recent adult contemporary works with Diane Warren, ...

Engelbert Humperdinck
Hip-O's sprawling 44-track Gold compilation may be more Engelbert Humperdinck than most folks can handle, but it's as definitive a collection as one could hope for. The legendary crooner was blessed with one of the smoothest sets of pipes to ever wrap themselves around a ballad, and Gold has plenty of slow dances to offer, including "Release Me," ...

Best of the Bee Gees, Vol. 2
(1973)
more music like this
by
The Bee Gees
This album, which originally appeared on LP in several slightly different versions and song lineups in different countries, came out at an unlikely moment. The group's first best-of album had coincided with the trio's split in mid-1969, a point when they had more than enough hits worldwide (a couple of which had never been on album) to justify and ...

by
Tom Jones
Tom Jones Gold is a two-disc, 42-track set that does an admirable job of mixing all his major hits recorded between 1965 and 1975 for the American Parrot label with well-chosen album tracks and B-sides. Interestingly, the U.K. Deram versions of Jones' singles and albums would occasionally differ slightly from the U.S. releases. All eight of those ...

Idea
(1968)
more music like this
by
The Bee Gees
The Bee Gees' third album is something of a departure, with more of a rocking sound and with the orchestra (apart from a few well-placed harp arpeggios) somewhat less prominent in the sound mix than on their first two LPs. The two hits, "I've Gotta Get a Message to You" and "I Started a Joke," are very much of a piece with their earlier work, but ...

Help Yourself

by
Tom Jones
The infectious title track was a Top 40 hit and it helped make Help Yourself Tom Jones' first Top Ten album, but the record was weighed down by lackluster material, making the album his weakest set since A-Tom-Ic Jones. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

more music like this
by
Michael Bolton
This three-CD box set collection contains three of Michael Bolton's most popular discs, acting close to a greatest-hits box set, but not close enough. The first disc, Timeless, and its sequel, Volume 2, are soft rock exercises paying tribute to some of Bolton's all-time favorite songs and love ballads. The overly chorused production sounds a bit ...

Al Green
As this two-CD best-of draws wholly from Green's prime as a Hi artist, and, as it contains almost everything from his Greatest Hits collection, one might reasonably assume that it's a good investment for those looking for a greatest hits anthology that's deeper than the single-disc Greatest Hits. Generally that's true, but there are some ...

Gene Pitney
A fair collection of typically melodramatic mid-'60s Pitney, with an Italian opera-pop touch on much (though not all) of the material. Includes "Nobody Needs Your Love," one of Randy Newman's earlier compositions (and a big hit for Gene in the U.K.), and a cover of "Pretty Flamingo." The hidden treasure, though, is "River Street," one of Pitney's ...

Tom Jones
Hip-O's 2004 budget-line Tom Jones release Greatest Love Songs gathers 17 popular romantic themes taken from the balladeer's late-'60s/early-'70s catalog on Parrot Records. While the disc contains several classic moments, including "It's Not Unusual," "Help Yourself," "I (Who Have Nothing)," and "Love Me Tonight," the selection is too haphazard to ...

The Definitive Tom Jones 1964-2002 pretty much fulfills the criteria most fans expect a multi-disc, career-spanning box set to satisfy. The four-CD, 93-track collection includes most of his chart hits -- and all of the big ones, though some minor entries get skipped over -- as well as a load of less familiar album tracks. Diehards might ...
