The Ultimate Collection is the eighth album released on Motown Records by the group DeBarge. The album is the second compilation of their greatest hits. In addition to the group numbers, it also includes solo singles from El DeBarge and Bunny DeBarge. It also includes a track from Chico DeBarge, who was never part of the family group. Also Motown was able to get the rights to the song "Dance All Night" from their Striped Horse Records album Bad Boys for this collection. The album also contains a Dance remix of the group's popular single, "Rhythm of the Night", while also featuring a more percussive, club mix radio edited version of the group's ballad "The Heart Is Not So Smart", the latter being remixed by John Morales and Sergio Munzibai.
