20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of The Gap Band
Except for a few minor differences -- a couple of different track selections, two fewer songs -- 20th Century Masters largely duplicates The Best of the Gap Band, which means that it isn't a bad compilation at all, just a largely unnecessary one. It's mostly a toss-up as to which is better, although The Best of the Gap Band may have a slight edge due to its inclusion of a couple of 12" versions, as well as the fact that it has two more songs than 20th Century Masters.

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Songs of John Fogerty John Fogerty CD
20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Songs of John Fogerty by John Fogerty on CD It's hard to argue against a collection of John Fogerty songs, but this brief set -- although it has some great material drawn both from Fogerty's time as leader of Creedence Clearwater Revival and his subsequent on-again, off-again solo career -- just doesn't do justice to its title, The Best of the Songs of John Fogerty. There's great stuff here, of course, like the original versions of... |

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Allman Brothers Band
With the 1991 compilation A Decade of Hits 1969-1979 still in print, you may ask why Polydor found it necessary to release The Best of the Allman Brothers Band as part of the Universal Music Group's 20th Century Masters/The Millennium Collection. After all, the new 11-track album shares nine selections with the earlier 16-track one. The simple answer is price: By purchasing The Best of the Allman Brothers Band , you get about 30 percent less music than you do on A Decade of Hits , and you pay one... |

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Carpenters, Carpenters, Music CD
It probably is not an oversight that the Carpenters entry in Universal Music Group's discount-priced compilation series 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection , unlike all the others, does not begin its title with the words "The Best of...." There have been plenty of Carpenters hits compilations, some of them still in print, and Richard Carpenter, who compiled this album, seems to have wearied of reconfiguring the group's hits one more time. Eight of the 12 tracks here were chart singles... |

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Reverend Horton Heat
Focusing almost exclusively on the three albums Reverend Horton Heat cut for Interscope in the late 1990s, this 20th CENTURY MASTERS collection brings together 18 tracks of the Rev's amped-up psychobilly. While it skimps on classics from Heat's tenure at Sub Pop ("Bad Reputation" and "Wiggle Stick" are nowhere to be found), that doesn't mean the disc is a disappointment. On the contrary, there is enough balls-out sleazy rocking here to satisfy almost anyone. |

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best Of The Troggs CD
20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Troggs is almost identical to the 1994 collection The Best of the Troggs released on Chronicles. This disc cuts two songs (the grungy "Gonna Make You" and the chugging "Surprise Surprise [I Need You]") and adds the ballad "Little Girl." The switch makes this collection inferior but it is still a fine place to get your hands on the best the Troggs have to offer. The set kicks off with the wild "Wild Thing" and jumps back and forth... |

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the 70's
No album containing only 12 songs with a running time of 52 minutes can claim anything like a comprehensive look at the 1970s, much less present "the best" of the decade. But Hip-O's discount-priced compilation, part of Universal Music's 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection series and drawing upon the major label's vast archives, plus a couple of licensed songs from other companies, can attempt to be representative of the diverse musical styles of the '70s.

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Tubes
There's no "She's a Beauty" or "Talk to You Later" on the Tubes' volume of 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection, because those songs were recorded in the early '80s, while the group was on Capitol. This disc concentrates entirely on '70s material for AM, when the group was at their strangest and artiest. True fans of this era will want to savor the full-length albums, of course, but for those that know the group only through album rock radio and want "White Punks on ******," "Prime Time... |

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Richie Havens
Another excellent entry in MCA's Millennium Collection, this features 12 of the singer/songwriter's best-known tunes. Havens' unique style moves effortlessly from standards like "San Francisco Bay Blues" to the bleakness of "The Klan" to very interesting covers of "Lady Madonna" and "Strawberry Fields Forever." A great little introductory set of Havens' best work. ~ Cub Koda, All Music Guide |

Probably the most consistently talented group of Motown's golden era, The Temptations released literally dozens of terrific singles, but the compilers of this collection managed the difficult feat of paring down this tremendous pile of work down to a solid overview of the group's absolute finest moments. Other than Norman Whitfield's psychedelic... |
