267. She's Golden!
Her 4th official compilation (and the most comprehensive to date, featuring no less than 42 tracks), "Step back in time" takes Kylie's musical manifestations and ensures that everyone gets to marvel at her evolvement and shedding of several musical skins to metamorphosise into the much cherished icon she is.Kylie has to be admired for hardly setting a foot wrong during her 3 decades in pop. From teenage sensation in the SAW era, bonafide pop star in "Let's get to it", dance-indie chic in the eponymous "Kylie Minogue" and "Impossible Princess" in the mid-Nineties, disco-princess in "Light years", sophisticated chanteuse in "Fever", electro-queen in "Body language", dancefloor-diva in "X", synth-goddess in "Aphrodite", sexy kitten in "Kiss me once", and country gal in "Golden", Kylie goes pop the whole way in the most fun way.This generous 2-disc set omits quite a lot. "Ultimate Kylie" is her first truly comprehensive collection, the only one to feature all 31 of her singles up to 2004. With at least 15+ singles missing from this new one, definitive this is not. At least an extra disc's worth could have been added on with singles from previous collections (ie. "Chocolate", "Giving you up"), those which were completely left out (ie. nothing from the "Kiss me once" album), and some that almost never appear on any best-of ("Finer feelings").Many editions and a variety of formats are available; the must-haves are the deluxe double CD that comes as as a hardback 32-page book with photos from the singles, and the coloured and picture disc vinyls, respectively, that come with a download for all 42 tracks (both feature 20 on disc). "SBIT" is an astonishing career-spanning collection from the UK's darling who remains untouchable for more than 3 decades, an ever changing kaleidoscope of colours and images.

Flawless and not out to make a statement, just to have a good time.
First official Greatest Hits since 2004 and it’s certainly the most comprehensive. Spanning over 30 years, Kylie Minogue has never had to resort to shock or political stance throughout her career. A collection covering countless genres, bubblegum to indie, country (not her first experiment with this sound) to flawless dance, you might not like them all however this release is a great trawl through her phenomenal history. It’s a shame her last album (the no.1 Golden) has been a bit overlooked however the top 40 hit Dancing is included.

Cheaper than advertised.
I am unable to comment on the quality or the content of the album, as it was purchased for my collection. It was delivered early and cheaper than the advertised price at the time of ordering. And as i have spent more for older records It is definitely a bargain. I know this isn't very informative but it is better than nothing. As this is a collection of older material I can't see any reason to miss out on it. I mean come on "It Is Green".

No Gatefold!!
Great selection of Kylie's best hits including some new ones with the digital download of 42 tracks.I dropped a star on the vinyl purely for cosmetic reasons as the two vinyls are housed in a singular sleeve. Would've been a great opportunity to showcase the last 30+ years of Kylie's career with album covers to the tracks chosen, concert highlights and so on a gatefold sleeve.The mint green vinyl's are a gorgeous colour and I've not had any pops or jumps. As for the sound that's each to their own. I love it personally and hope we hear more new songs from Kylie soon.
