The Ultimate Collection is a compilation album from Elaine Paige, released on May 12, 2014 by Rhino UK/Warner Music UK to celebrate her ’50th Anniversary’ in show-business.
The career-spanning retrospective features songs released between 1978 and 2011, including original hit recordings from Elaine Paige’s most iconic roles in musical theatre, her favourite LP and Single tracks, plus a recently commissioned remix by hit-makers Almighty. The compilation also notably features previously unreleased songs "It's Raining On Prom Night" and "What A Feeling" from the Warner Music vaults - both songs were out-takes from studio albums Paige released during the 1980s.
On May 16, 2014 Elaine Paige was a guest in the ITV breakfast show This Morning and later on the day she appeared on SkyNews channel to promote her upcoming farewell tour, The Elaine Paige Show and The Ultimate Collection. In addition to this, she gave a few interviews for the British magazines, including a gay magazine The Attitude and Woman's Weekly. Information about the release of this compilation also appeared in a number of TV guides, including TV Times, Total TV Guide and TV & Satellite Week.
In June 2014 Elaine Paige appeared on the cover of Saga Magazine. The Gay Times also published an interview with her in June issue.
