Recorded between 1952 & 1965. Includes liner notes by Joseph F. Laredo.

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Kitty Wells is a decent primer of her best years with Decca, collecting such definitive singles as "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels," "Makin' Believe," "Heartbreak U.S.A.," "Mommy for a Day," and "Release Me." Tracks like "Will Your Lawyer Talk to God" reflect the strong, proto-feminist feeling of her work, which not only influenced further generations of female country artists but also echoed the sentiments of many women in the '50s and '60s. At only a dozen tracks long, 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Kitty Wells is no match for the Bear Family box or even more extensive single-disc collections like God's Honky Tonk Angel, but it's a concise collection of songs from country music's first queen. ~ Heather Phares

All tracks have been digitally remastered.

Compilation producer: Andy McKaine.

Liner Note Author: Joseph F. Laredo.

Personnel includes: Kitty Wells, Red Foley.

Producer: Owen Bradley.

Customer 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection Reviews 




Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars) 3 stars

3 stars Decca recordings on CD
Kitty recorded over 40 albums for Decca Records from the 1950's to the 1970's. This collection tries the impossible task of picking her biggest hits. Many of these songs appear on other collections, so a more diverse song selection would have been better. It is interesting that they did not include the original version of Searching, but choose to include the re-recorded version from the 1963 "Kitty Wells Story". I think it would have been wise to use more of her re-recordings from 1963 on this CD. It would have made this different from the other releases out there. Many forget that Kitty's voice worked well with the "Nashville Sound", and her albums of the 1960's are little gems of county music history.

CD $18.79  5 stars Audio Samples
This CD contains B.B. King's first ABC-Paramount studio efforts -- Mr. Blues (1962) and Confessin' the Blues (1965), respectively. While there are inevitable similarities between the projects, offering them back-to-back allows listeners an acute sense of King's rapid maturation and development during what was by all accounts the nexus of the guitarist/vocalist's career. The dozen-song Mr. Blues was a haphazard start for King with the contents taken from three different recording sessions in a 13-month period (March 1, 1962 through April 11, 1963). Based on the results, the artist was being presented as a blues shouter, supported by an antiquated big band and/or orchestra. Arguably the best of the lot ...

Brooks & Dunn Greatest Hits Collection CD  (1997)

20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection
CD $9.99  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
A greatest hits collection is almost a redundancy for this chart-topping contemporary country duo, since nearly everything they touch turns to gold (if not platinum). Nevertheless, this compilation condenses the band's catalog, including three brand new tracks, into 19 sparkling gems of country-pop, bound to please both longtime fans and curious first-timers. They're all here, from the band's stellar cover of the pop hit "My Maria" to beer-swiggin' jukebox faves like "Boot Scootin' Boogie" and "Honky Tonk Truth." What comes across most strongly on this album is the consistency of Brooks and Dunn's work, as it moves from house-rockin' uptempo numbers to sentimental ballads without losing a step. Every track features top-notch ...
