Overview

Background

Juice Newton began her recording career in 1975 but did not achieve major stardom until the release of her 1981 album

Old Flame", "Cheap Love", and "What Can I Do with My Heart". After two more albums (Emotion and Ain't Gonna Cry) Newton concentrated more on concert performing.[2]

Newton returned to recording in 1998 with her album

American Girl.[5] In the mid-1990s Newton began recording a series of duets. Initially these were conceived to be a double album that would be released via a television infomercial. However legal problems kept them from being officially issued for many years.[6] What finally emerged was a single disc collection of 10 songs released in 2010 as Duets: Friends & Memories.[7] In the meantime, Newton made a concert video, Every Road Leads Back to You, and a Christmas album, The Gift of Christmas.[8][9]

Ultimate Hits

Juice Newton's The Ultimate Hits Collection was released as a budget-priced anthology by

American Girl along with a duet with Willie Nelson from Duets: Friends & Memories are also included.[5][7] The only previously unreleased recording in the collection is "Sweet Sweet Smile", a song written by Newton with her long-time collaborator Otha Young that had been a minor hit for The Carpenters in 1978.[14][15]

The Ultimate Hits Collection has been made available from iTunes with two extra songs taken from The Gift of Christmas.[16]
