This 2007 Definitive Collection chronicles for the first time ever their entire recording career, from the earliest "Shout" days, through the highlights of their Motown days ("This Old Heart Of Mine"), their all-important T-Neck jam ("Fight The Power") and Angela Winbush-produced ballads ("Smooth Sailin", "Floatin" On Your Love"), to their latest evolution as the soulful statesmen of R&B/Hip-Hop, including collaborations with R. Kelly.
