Pat Benatar: The
Ultimate Collection
|
|
|
| Album
Info: |
|
Pat Benatar's top hits and signature album cuts have
been gathered for a new 2-CD and digital release, Pat
Benatar: Ultimate Collection, to be released by Capitol/EMI.
Among the collection's 40 tracks, totaling more than two
hours of music, are 20 Top 40 chart hits, including "Heartbreaker,"
"Love Is A Battlefield," "Hit Me With Your
Best Shot," "Fire And Ice," "Invincible,"
and "We Belong."
Pat Benatar first burst into international music circles
with her 1979 smash, "Heartbreaker." When MTV
began beaming into America's living rooms in 1980, the
Buggles' "Video Killed The Radio Star" was the
first music video to be broadcast by the network. Benatar's
hit cover of the Young Rascals' "You Better Run"
was the second. As she sang "We Belong," the
decade belonged to Benatar, who took home an unprecedented
four consecutive Grammy Awards for Best Female Rock Performance
and racked up six consecutive Platinum and three Gold
RIAA sales certifications for the nine albums she released
between 1979 and 1989, selling tens of millions of albums
around the world.
The diversity of Benatar's fanbase today, a global audience
encompassing baby boomers and their Gen X and Gen Y descendents,
reflects her music's vast and enduring appeal. Her strong
yet vulnerable vocal missives, whether hurled or gently
swept over her band's solid rock arrangements, sound as
fresh and 'now' today as they did when they were first
recorded. Pat Benatar has inspired new generations of
musicians as varied as her audience, and her music is
an essential entry in the American rock canon.
