If Judy Garland had been born in the '80s instead of the '20s, she'd have followed the usual path taken by today's teens on their way to stardom, if not exactly legend: she'd have been on Star Search; joined the new Mickey Mouse Club; gigged around Orlando, Florida; and then been drafted to lip-synch to Swedish-produced pop songs. Luckily for us, she came around at a time when genuine talent was not just discovered and then packaged, but was given material to work with that was worthy of it. Garland was still a teenager when she recorded some of the songs included on this collection, including a number of tunes by George and Ira Gershwin ("I Got Rhythm," "Embraceable You," "Swanee"), duets with Bing Crosby and Gene Kelly, and several immortal tunes from her films, including "Over the Rainbow," "On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe," and "Meet Me in St. Louis." Her personal troubles came later, so everything on this set is bright and upbeat. --Daniel Durchholz

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good as far as it goes, January 8, 2001

Eleven of the 12 songs here wonderful recordings for every collector (inclusion of the duet with Bing Crosby is a strange choice--certainly not one of Judy's finest). My quibble is that a 12-song "millennium" collection on a CD is just chintzy, especially when the songs are not extended play versions. Judy merits at least 15 to 20 songs for the past millennium, and the technology easily allows for putting that many on a disc.

This album delivers Judy Garland in her early years (and early years ONLY). If you want the younger, crisper sound of Judy Garland, featuring primarily show tunes, then get this album.

I would have given this ablum 5 stars if it included more material (there was room for more songs) and if it included some of her great performances later in her career.

It is what it is. If you want a high quality recording of her early music, get this album. If you want the feel of her later performances on stage (as opposed to the sound room), then look for something else.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good Intro, July 29, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Best Of Judy Garland: 20th Century Masters (Millennium Collection) (Audio CD)

Good introduction to her Judy's legendary talents, but longtime fans need to know that these are the Decca versions, because it is quite possible that they already have these recordings on other discs. (For those who don't know, Judy often recorded different arrangements of songs she did in her current movies for Decca Records. These are the songs on this disc.) Enjoy, future Judy fans!
