The Ultimate Collection is a 3-CD set by The Carpenters released in 2006. It contains many of their popular songs, like "(They Long to Be) Close to You" and "Top of the World", and their album cuts, like "Desperado" and "Jambalaya (On the Bayou)". All of the songs are taken directly from the original album. In the case of "Yesterday Once More", it fades into a motorcycle engine, which subsequently fades into the oldies medley on the Now & Then album.

The album is the first compilation to contain all of their charting US singles (with the exception of the Christmas singles). The UK and Australian versions did not include the bonus disc and also had a slightly different track listing; substituting "Sandy" for "Goofus", "When It's Gone" for "(Want You) Back in My Life Again" and "Your Baby Doesn't Love You Anymore" for "Make Believe It's Your First Time", whilst removing "Beechwood 4-5789" and adding "You're the One" and "Where Do I Go from Here".
