Record Collection is the third studio album by British producer Mark Ronson.
The cover, credited to art directors Gerard Saint and Mat Maitland, made reference to several famous record covers, notably Rio by Duran Duran (whose members, Simon Le Bon and Nick Rhodes, appeared on the album).
The AV Club's Marc Hawthorne assigned the album a grade of A−, saying: "Ronson raised the bar pretty high by making the synth fantasy "Bang Bang Bang" the lead single and placing it first on the album... but there's enough big-bang boom throughout to make Record Collection feel complete."
A review from Pitchfork writer Stephen M. Deusner was mixed – "It's a bit too clipped and choppy to be especially funky," he wrote, "but it does keep things fleet and agile as Ronson introduces and develops new ideas, revealing a musical curiosity that Version seemed to preclude."
Other reviews, while praising guests such as Boy George and Rose Elinor Dougall, were unimpressed by Ronson's stylistic approach.
