The Ultimate Hits Reviews
| 57 of 60 people found the following review helpful:  It's "The Hits" updated, By This review is from: The Ultimate Hits (Audio CD) This is a great collection, no question, however there are a lot of songs that are missing from here, "The Red Strokes" for instance. What this album does is presents the entire original 18 songs from "The Hits" album with other songs released since that time. The focus though is primarily on the first half of his career. The DVD features videos for every song on the album, using live clips or TV show appearences for the songs that didn't have videos made. Last year Garth released "The Entertainer" set which included all the missing videos from this set. It also included the full length concerts from which many of these clips are pulled. Contrary to popular belief the four new tracks on this set are not the first songs we've gotten since his retirement. In 2005 he released his "Lost Sessions" which were all brand new songs recorded in 2005, they may have been written prior to '05, but they were all recorded in '05, and a great album that was too. Garth has... Read more 44 of 49 people found the following review helpful:  Perfect for Any Collection, By This review is from: The Ultimate Hits (Audio CD) My apologies for the length. Lots to say about my favorite artist in what probably will be my only review of any of his material (at least for a while). His only greatest hits compilation was "The Hits" from 1994. Since then, he has reached the 100 million units mark in the United States (the second of four acts to be certified at that mark and one of two solo artists, the other, of course, being Elvis Presley). He has toured the world and performed in sold-out venues in over 20 countries. He has broken more records than can be compiled in one list. Now, finally, he has released a compilation that covers his entire career - to date, that is. What a collection it is. For anyone who has forgotten why he remains one of the most popular artists in U.S. music history, one listen through the two-disc CD set should serve as a good reminder. There are no weak tracks (not that there would be in a greatest-hits collection), including the new...
