Essential Heart is the only compilation that covers the group's tenure at both Epic and Capitol. All the hits of the '70s are featured on the first disc and include "Crazy on You," "Magic Man," "Barracuda" and "Straight On." The second disc includes all of their comeback material recorded in the '80s such as "What About Love?," "These Dreams," and "Nothin' at All."

These are the roots of my career in music. These tracks have determined the path to follow and many of them where revolutionary and truly progressive at the time they where originally released. I have taken the greatest care to come up with the best possible masters, sometimes comparing up to 5 different versions to find out which one sounded the best and most pure. And sometimes even baking the analog master tapes to make them playable again. The heat evaporates the moisture in the coating of the tape. The otherwise moist backing will clog up all parts of the tape recorder the tape touches, leaving a dark glue like substance grinding everything to a halt. After the backing process, the tape becomes playable again and the transfer to digital is performed. Some tracks feature a combination of vocal and dub version just as I used to perform that combination in a live DJ-set. Such a combination features the best parts from the vocal and dub version, capturing the complete feel of what that track meant to me.

12" dance collectors rejoice. Ben Liebrand has assembled a 3rd volume loaded with full length mixes, tediously mastered (some from vinyl because he couldn't find the original masters, but you really can't tell). Personally, 2 songs that make it extremely worth the price for this 4 disc set for me are the Giorgio Moroder productions: Suzi Lane, and the 12" version of Janis Ian from the Foxes soundtrack. There are also NUMEROUS hard to get 12" versions finally here on CD. Still so many more elusive mixes for Liebrand to include on future volumes, and I hope he'll take note of the request list on his website.
