Stand by Me: The Ultimate Collection was Ben E. King's 16th album, yet only his second compilation album. The album was released in 1987 and includes many classic hits such as the standard Stand By Me, plus the original Spanish Harlem and Young Boy Blues.

However, the single In the Middle of the Night, which was released on the Seven Letters album, is one of his better known songs that was overlooked for this compilation.
