The closest thing there is to a career retrospective so far for
Bonnie Tyler
,
The Very Best of Bonnie Tyler
encompasses the first three phases of her career: her country period with
Ronnie Scott
and
Steve Wolfe
, her bombastic period with
Jim Steinman
Desmond Child
, and her AOR period with
Giorgio Moroder
. For an overview of the first part of her career, this is an excellent choice -- though it is still recommended that buying the original albums is the way to go, given
Tyler
's versatility. All in all, a great collection. ~ Tomas Mureika
