Editorial Reviews

The 20th Century Masters series is the best-selling single-artist line in music history and is being re-released by Universal Music Enterprises (UMe) in its ground-breaking, environmentally-friendly packaging format. A first for the music industry, the standard package (both sleeve and tray) will be completely paper-recyclable, continuing the company's long-standing commitment to being "green."

To further reduce the amount of paper in the Eco-Pack, the CD booklet will no longer be offered. Official liner notes are easily accessible on the Internet at http://www.ilovethatsong.com/green.

UMe is the first North American music company to replace the traditional jewel case with recycled paperboard sleeves and the plastic tray with trays made from PaperFoam®, a new packaging technology from Shorewood Packaging, a business of International Paper, that is paper-recyclable and biodegradable. Shorewood Packaging is the first North American packaging supplier to produce disc trays from PaperFoam®. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's a decent collection., December 16, 2003

I remember when I disliked the "Gin Blossoms", but that was before I actually owned one of their albums. This is a good intro to the band, it's a couple songs shorter than their official "Best Of", but its got what's essential. Included are the huge songs "Hey Jealousy", "Allison Road", "Found Out About You", and the pretty "Until I Fall Away". Plus "Follow You Down", and seven others. If you're a fan of "Counting Crows" or "Toad The Wet Sprocket", or just mid-90's alt-pop in general, you should like this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Decent collection of the very best of the gin blossoms., January 26, 2007

This is essentially a shorter version of the greatest hits album "outside looking In" released a few years before this one. But this covers all of their major songs, exactly what you want to keep your CD collection slim but Complete, best bang for the inexpensive buck in Gin Blossoms music. Check out their 2006 release Major Lodge victory, when I listen to it, warped me right back to the days the song on this CD were release, they still sound great.
