"Ultimate? Not at all. EMI should sack its compiler and let the fans decide what should be on a Diana Ross compilation. Valuable space is wasted on this disc because of the daft decision to put Supreme songs, and a number of fillers that I have never heard. Where is the beautiful "Missing You" from 1984, or "The Boss" from 1979? And of course "It's my Turn" and the very obvious ommission of "I'm Coming Out". OK, I am on a roll now ... where is "Last Time I Saw Him" or "The Wiz" or the UK and Aussie No. 1 "My Old Piano" (from 1980)?



I can assure you, even Ms Ross wouldn't be happy with this pitiful effort. After seeing her in concert in Sydney in 1991, I realised how fantastic her treasure trove of songs is. And yes, all the ones I mentioned above were part of her concert ... but not part of this joke of a CD."

Casual Fans Only

"Although there is plenty of negative reviews about this album, I'll explain why this album was made. This album is intended ONLY for CASUAL fans of Diana Ross who only wants just one CD. There is no way to satisfy everyone with just one CD just like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones,....



Thus, it is NOT for the Diana Ross fan since you would already have these songs. As far as why certain songs are here and others are missing is a mystery. It's best to either get her box set (which may STILL not satisfy the fan) or get other hit collections."

"These choice of songs features Diana Ross' divesity as a singer. It takes us from the 60's to the 90's as her style changes; a little bit of pop, rock, R&B; even easy listening. Diana Ross is still definately the Boss."
