Almost a hundred songs for two or more singing partners of Karel Gott, more than twenty songs never released on CD. An elegant box with a set of memories and hints of new possibilities. The best of Gott's Czech and Slovak, as well as foreign, singing colleagues in the undoubted archival event of the season. Some duets can be found on previous albums or compilations, but in this chronological completeness this is the very first chance.

On the four CDs, summarizing recordings from the periods 1962–1978, 1980–1992, 1993–2006 and 2008–2014, supplemented by two novelties this year, dozens of expected and surprising guests will appear. 

From Vlasta Průchová to the "sixties" Eva Pilarová, Hana Hegerová, Jana Petrů, Waldemar Matuška, Milan Chladil or Karel Štědré, we will swing into the next decade with Mariá Rottrová, Jana Robbová, Naďa Urbánková or Jitka Zelenková. The 1980s brought, for example, Hana Zagorová, Darina Rolincová, Marcela Holanová, Marika Gombitová or Petra Janů to the common microphone, but also Josef Laufer. Until the 1990s, Iveta Bartošová, Marta Kubišová, Ladislav Křížek, Pavol Habera with Peter Dvorský, Daniel Hůlka, Pavel Bobek or Michal David sang with Karl Gott, rare foreign guests include Daliah Lavi or DJ Bobo. The most recent reel did not miss Bushid, Lucia Bíla, Xavier Naidoo, Anna Maria Kaufmann, Xindla X, Olga Lounová, Monika Absolonová, Štefan Margita, Alexandrovka or Lucia Vondráčková. Disc 5 is extraordinary: live recordings from 1965 to 2010 prove how interesting Karel Gott sounded in concert with Felicia Weathers, Bára Basiková, Ilona Csáková, Pauletta de Vaughn, Věra Gondolanová, Karl Černoch, Petr Muk or Eva Urbanová. With the new single Only Love Stops Time, a pop-rock ballad penned by guitarist and producer Dodo Doležal, it's a look back at more than five decades of duets that perfectly complement Gott's illustrious solo career. This year's news confirms that the series of similarly attractive collaborations is far from over!
