Like any record company worth its salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when it sees
it, and when the millennium came around...well, the 20th Century Masters - The
Millennium Collection series wasnt too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is
a momentous occasion, but its hard to feel that way when its used as another
excuse to turn out a slew of budget-line comps. But apart from the presumptuous
title, 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection turns out to be a very
good budget-line series. True, its impossible for any of these brief collections
to be definitive, but theyre nevertheless solid samplers that dont feature a bad
song in the bunch. For example, take Chuck Berrys 20th Century volume -- its an
irresistible 11-song summary of his Chess years. There may be several noteworthy
songs missing, but many of his best-known songs are here, including Maybellene,
Roll Over Beethoven, Brown Eyed Handsome Man, School Days, Rock & Roll Music,
Sweet Little Sixteen, Johnny B. Goode, Carol, You Never Can Tell, No Particular
Place to Go, and -- unfortunately -- the wretched My Ding-A-Ling. Serious fans
will want something more extensive, but this is an excellent introduction for
neophytes and a great sampler for casual fans, considering its length and price.
That doesnt erase the ridiculousness of the series title, but the silliness is
excusable when the music and the collections are good.
