While not the most thorough survey of
Tina Turner's career,
All the Best covers most of the bases. From the early years to "River Deep Mountain High" to re-recordings of some of her work with husband
Ike to her magnificent and triumphant return to the charts, it's all here in one form or another. There are a few new songs on here that are easily forgettable, and at two discs get a bit bogged down in filler (her cover of
Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love" is a totally unnecessary inclusion) this could have been a powerhouse single disc. These small misgivings aside, all of the major hits are here, including those previously only available on soundtracks or singles, making it a perfect starting point for those looking to get just the hits for their collection.
