Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around -- well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line series. But apart from the presumptuous title, 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection turns out to be a very good budget-line series. True, it's impossible for any of these brief collections to be definitive, but they're nevertheless solid samplers that don't feature a bad song in the bunch. For example, take Louis Armstrong's 20th Century volume -- it's an irresistible ten-song summary of his latter-day Decca/MCA recordings. There may be a couple of noteworthy songs missing, but many of his best-known songs of the era are here, including "What a Wonderful World," "Hello Dolly!," "Dream a Little Dream of Me," "Blueberry Hill," "A Kiss to Build a Dream On," "Gone Fishin'," and "When It's Sleepy Time Down South." 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 doesn't erase the ridiculousness of the series title, but the silliness is excusable when the music and the collections are good.
