Details: Product DescriptionHouston, WhitneyAmazon.caFor an artist who only released four proper albums in a 15-year career, it’s astounding to recall how many hits Whitney Houston was able to achieve. The two CDs onThe Greatest Hits track Houston’s rise from mid-’80s Top40 balladeer to standard-setting diva. Disc1,Cool Down, runs chronologically through Houston’s down-tempo love songs, from « The Greatest Love of All » and « I Will Always Love You » to the cleverly conceived new duet with Deborah Cox, « Same Script, Different Cast. » She’s also showcased as the remixee of choice for DJs on the second disc,Throw Down, which serves as the antidote to the lovesick first disc. Calling in marquee mixmasters, Houston’s old-shoe tunes get a new millennium polish. « My Love Is Your Love, » reinterpreted by Jonathan Peters, captures the versatility of Houston’s songs by making the downbeats danceable without going totally Euro-cheese. In contrast, Junior Vasquez’s remix of 1985’s « How Will I Know » pokes fun at the song’s ’80s fluffiness by layering in bells, lasers effects, and echoes on top of Whitney’s enthusiastic vocals.–Heidi Sherman
