DECENT ARISTA YEARS COLLECTION

"I do agree with another reviewer about B-sides or other versions of some Arista Years tracks being included, but most likely we will be falling on deaf ears. I'm still waiting for the superb "This Time Is Ours" to finally be issued on a Dionne album, and on CD. This was the B-side to the "Some Changes Are For Good" single that never made an album.
All in all, this is a nice collection from Dionne's Arista years, as it covers all albums on two CDs. I may have made an alternate choice here an there, but as a package, it is great. 36 tracks on 2 discs all in one case is great for taking in the car. The superb "Legends" release being three CDs and a small box can be awkward for the car, but this issue is the saving grace. The remastering on these tracks are also the best I've heard compared to other releases.
Great also for an introduction to Dionne for this period of her career. As stated on the liner noted, she is celebrating 45 years in the business."
MORE REHASED ARISTA STUFF.

"I love Warwick. But, come on what about the B-sides she did for her former label? She was with the label from 1979 to 1994, surely there is
alot of shelved, unreleased stuff stored away. Why not unearth that?"
