20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Nana Mouskouri Product Description
20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Nana Mouskouri by Nana Mouskouri was released Mar 21, 2006 on the Universal Distribution label. It is no exaggeration to state that Nana Mouskouri is a global superstar. 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Nana Mouskouri With record sales in the multi-millions, an unflagging popularity in Europe, North America, and elsewhere, and a repertoire that spans a thousand songs in a variety of languages, it's hard to find an artist with more across-the-board (or border, as it were) success. At 15 tracks, the scope of this 20TH CENTURY MASTERS collection is pretty small, so this best-of set ends up making a molehill out of a mountain. 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Nana Mouskouri contains a single disc with 15 songs. ...See Full Description

Elvis Presley ELV1S: 30 # 1 Hits CD (2002) Top Seller
20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Nana Mouskouri Includes liner notes Peter Guralnick and Ernst Mikael Jorgensen.
Commemorating the 25th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death, 30 #1 HITS presents a career-spanning serving of the King's chart-toppers.
Dating back to "Heartbreak Hotel" (which was inspired by a suicide note printed in the Miami Herald), most of these cuts have become indelibly etched into the fabric of pop culture and each has a unique story behind it. "Love Me Tender" has its origins in the Civil War ballad "Aura Lee," "It's Now Or Never" found Elvis Americanizing the Neapolitan ballad "O Sole Mio," and "Wooden Heart" likewise was converted from a German children's song.
This Memphis native's choice of artists to cover was equally intriguing and includes Hollywood legend Al Jolson ("Are You Lonesome Tonight?"), New Orleans soul shouter Smiley Lewis ("One Night"), blues great Big Mama Thornton ("Hound Dog"), and country titan Hank Snow ("[Now And Then There's] A Fool Such As I"). Further testimony of Presley's long-lasting appeal is the inclusion of the JXL Radio Edit Remix of "A Little Less Conversation," a UK #1 that not only enabled Elvis to have more chart-toppers than The Beatles, but also became a hit in a number of other countries including the United States.
All tracks have been digitally remastered.

At Her Very Best CD (2001)
20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Nana Mouskouri The task of compiling a single-disc best-of collection for legendary Greek chanteuse Nana Mouskouri is virtually impossible, but this 21-track retrospective, spanning the singer's career and incorporating a range of musical styles, is an excellent introduction for the novice or casual fan. For the collector, it offers two rarities: her version of "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" (in English) and her duet with Michel Legrand, "Quand on S'Aime." From the song that made her famous ("The White Rose of Athens") to French opera (Carmen's Habanera), the array of musical styles (and languages) this woman has conquered is staggering. This disc, which includes pop songs ("Bridge Over Troubled Water"), gospel ("Oh Happy Day"), and classics (Ave Maria), brings the songs together seamlessly -- it's difficult to imagine that these recordings span nearly 40 years. Despite a serious lack of liner notes, this single-disc compilation is a definite treat, and a wonderful introduction to one of the most famous singers the world has known. ~ Jose F. Promis
A newly remastered definitive anthology of one of the world's best loved popular singers. In her 30 year career, Mouskouri has sold over 300 million albums worldwide and continues to enthrall audiences everywhere. This selection draws from the full spectrum of her recording career.
Personnel includes: Nana Mouskouri, Michel LeGrand.
Arrangers: Chapman; J. Johns; Alain Goraguer; Paul Simon; Art Garfunkel; Cat Stevens.
