The Collection (stylized as The ★ Collection) is a compilation album by French singer Amanda Lear, released in 1991 by BMG-Ariola.
Background
The album was part of BMG's mid-price CD series The Collection, released in the early 1990s, containing back-catalogue material by artists ranging from Modern Talking, Baccara and Boney M. to Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley and Nina Simone.[2] The compilation consisted of songs exclusively from Amanda's first two albums, I Am a Photograph and Sweet Revenge, released in 1977 and 1978, respectively. The artwork is credited to FKGB. The picture used on the album's cover dates back to the 1980s and was taken by Roberto Rocchi.[3] In 1998, BMG re-released the album in Europe with the same title, but different artwork and expanded track listing.
