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 review is from: Best of Smokey Robinson & The Miracles: 20th Century Masters - Millennium Collection: (Eco-Friendly Packaging) (Audio CD)

Smokey Robinson is an American legend and his group, the Miracles, should be commended for their talents in the Motown generation and era. There was a song in the 1980s which was "When Smokey Sings," and this compact disc tries to provide a taste or sampling of his talent and the appetite that the public had for his musical style. His voice is clear and soothing. His other songs here like "Cruisin" are just only a taste for his style. You'll want more from Smokey Robinson if you haven't built a collection in his honor. Still, the Miracles are also worth mentioning because they were his group. I don't know much about the Miracles but I only have a little taste of it. I also like the songs, "Tears of A Clown," and "Just to See Her" on this disc but I think that they could have provided more songs.
