Great Collection!

This collection nicely combines her best songs from her somewhat "uneven era" (1980-1994). Sure, her Arista years are no match of her more interesting earlier Atlantic years. However, this disc looks good with her box set or the 2 Rhino "Best Of...".

I agree and wonder: "Where in the world is 'Through The Storm'?"
The other notable song "Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves" is missing, but it was an "RCA single" so Arista did not have the rights to the song. However, I'm not certain that there will be a better package than this so it's the pick by default. Recommend for Aretha fans only. For casual fans, get "Aretha's Best" which highlights her Atlantic and Arista years on one CD.

Hits from the 1980s and beyond

Aretha's star seemed to fade during the disco era of the middle to late 1970s, but then she made a comeback. This collection covers her time on Arista from 1980 to 1994 and distils the best work from five albums. It includes the huge hits Freeway Of Love and the duet I Knew You Were Waiting For Me (with George Michael). Other impressive songs include Jump To It, Doctor's Orders (with Luther Vandross) and Get It Right. I also like Willing To Forgive, Ever Changing Times, A Deeper Love and this version of Natural Woman featuring Bonnie Raitt and Gloria Estefan. Her version of Jumpin' Jack Flash is quite a tour de force with Keith Richards doing his thing on electric guitar. Although I prefer her classic work from the 1960s and 1970s like Spanish Harlem, Respect and her exquisite rendition of Bridge Over Troubled Water, this collection demonstrates that she found lots of new spark in the 1980s and contributed a memorable body of work in that and the following decade.
