The Very Best of Cilla Black is an original, career-spanning compilation album by English singer Cilla Black, released in October 2013 by Parlophone / Warner Music Group UK to mark her golden anniversary in show business.[1] The album reached No. 37[2] in 2013 on the UK Albums Chart, which was Black's first Top 40 hit in thirty years. In September 2014, after the transmission of ITV biopic Cilla starring Sheridan Smith the album re-entered the UK Albums Chart and peaked at No. 26. The album was to make its ultimate peak at No. 1 after Black's death in August 2015, becoming her first number one album.[3] It also reached No. 1 in New Zealand on 21 August 2015 and stayed there for 5 consecutive weeks, making it the first album to achieve this since Sole Mio's eponymous album in March 2014.[4]

Overview

The 2013 release is a two disc set—one CD and one DVD: the CD album includes all 19 of Black's UK Top 40 singles alongside fan favourites and recently commissioned dance remixes of Cilla classics; the bonus region-free PAL DVD contains the 1966 TV special Cilla at the Savoy.

The compilation was repackaged on 20 November 2015 with a special Gold foil 'Cilla' cover featuring an extended 16-page picture booklet and tribute from Cilla's son Robert Willis (who is the executive producer of the album).[5] A single CD edition was also released in November 2015 by Warner Music Australia.
