The Ultimate Collection (2003 Donna Summer album)

The Ultimate Collection is a greatest hits three-CD compilation of recordings by American singer Donna Summer released in the Netherlands in early 2003.

Unlike most of Summer's compilations, the 32-bit remastered Ultimate Collection includes the 16-minute album version of her breakthrough hit, "Love to Love You Baby, the original 12" versions of "Theme from The Deep (Down Deep Inside)", "Last Dance", "Hot Stuff", "Bad Girls", the original album or single versions of her biggest hits as well as the early European singles "The Hostage" and "Lady of the Night".

Disc three contains live recordings from the 1978 album Live and More alongside a selection of rarities such as the 1990s remixes of "I Feel Love" and "State of Independence" and the full-length album versions of the 1979 duet "No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)" with Barbra Streisand and "Je t'aime... moi non plus" from the 1978 soundtrack Thank God It's Friday.

An anomaly on this compilation is the heavily edited version of Summer's disco landmark "I Feel Love" appearing on disc one. While the original six-minute album–single version has been included on a number of other career retrospectives, on the otherwise exhaustive three-disc Ultimate Collection the track is for some reason only three minutes eleven seconds in length.

The Ultimate Collection, packaged in a double gatefold cardboard sleeve - although usually listed as a box set, was released by the Dutch label CCM, a subsidiary of Universal Music Holland. CCM has previously issued similar three-CD Ultimate Collections by artists like Grace Jones, Barry White, Diana Ross, Kool & The Gang, Dusty Springfield and others.
