Players Presents TOSHIKI KADOMATSU Ballad Collection

『Players Presents TOSHIKI KADOMATSU Ballad Collection』（プレイヤーズ・プレゼンツ・トシキ・カドマツ・バラード・コレクション）は、2007年12月12日に発売された角松敏生通算3作目のバラード・ベスト・アルバム。

 解説 
『T's BALLAD』『TEARS BALLAD』に続くバラード・アルバム。新曲を含む13曲を、前作『Prayer』およびライブツアーに参加したミュージシャン達がサウンド・プロデュース。サード・アルバム『ON THE CITY SHORE』以降、セルフ・プロデュースおよびセルフ・アレンジを手掛けてきた角松にとって、他のミュージシャンによるサウンド・プロデュースはアルバム『REASONS FOR THOUSAND LOVERS』以来となる。

「これからもずっと」はシングル「君のためにできること」のカップリングに収録されているが、2001年8月に東京国際展示場西屋外展示場で行われた『TOSHIKI KADOMATSU 20th Anniversary』ライブで記念CDとして配布されている。
