From the Heart - the Greatest Hits is the first greatest hits album by the British boyband Another Level, released on 1 June 2002, two years after the group had split. The album was released to fulfill the band's three album deal which they signed when they were signed to Northwestside records in 1998. The album contains all eight of the band's singles, plus three popular album tracks, plus five additional alternative versions including a previously unreleased live session of "I Can See You in My Mind".

Background

Another Level were originally conceived by Nick Raphael and Christian Tattersfield for their new record label project, Northwestside Records, a BMG sub-label in the United Kingdom that had also signed Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella Records unit in 1998. They felt there was a gap in the market for an interracial boyband. Raphael and Tattersfield asked future Epic A&R Jo Charrington to put the group together and then manage them. Charrington recruited the members by auditioning singers from the BRIT School and modelling agencies, with the band originally consisting of a fifth member, Michael Kempster, who left the band shortly after recruitment to pursue a solo career.^[1] Due to Northwestside's position as an urban marketed record label, a number of R&B and hip hop stars guested on Another Level's debut album. These included Jay-Z, who appeared on "Be Alone No More", Ghostface Killah, who appeared on the single version of "I Want You for Myself", MC Fats who appeared on "What You Know About Me", and TQ, who appeared on "Summertime".
