All The Best is Tina’s second greatest hits album, featuring her biggest hits, three new recorded songs and a longer version of „Great Spirits“ from the Brother Bear soundtrack. The track „Something Special“ was a leftover from the Wildest Dreams recording session. The album was reviewed in Billboard magazine in it’s issue from February 9, 2005 and marked the highest chart entry for Tina in America, with #2 in it's first week. Also in America, it was re-issued the following year as an abridged single disc version under the title All The Best - The Hits and in April 2018, it was reissued in England under the title The Greatest Hits, including a different cover art to promote TINA - The Tina Turner Musical in London.
