5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite Things!, November 27, 2003

This review is from: The Best of The Supremes - The Christmas Collection: 20th Century Masters (Audio CD)

First, this collection is phenomenal! What a great collection of fabulous Supremes Christmas music. The remastering is first rate. The booklet, photos, essay by historian Andrew Skurow and annotations are wonderful.

This collection is exactly the same as the 1999 reissue, same bonus tracks, same booklet, etc. The ONLY difference is the cover, which I understand is because Universal Music wanted to make all their Christmas releases uniform, and thus the banner across the top and enlarged photo on the front.

Others have complained that there are other Supremes songs that should be here. I agree, but it's just a few songs found in the vaults, but that are available on other collections. I've also read taht some fans would rather have the mono version of the original album, but I disagree. This CD is in full glorious stereo. The mono LP had no backgrounds, and most of the mixes were inferior. Motown did a perfect job on this one! Treat yourself to a great Christmas CD!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Splendid, but..., October 23, 2003

This review is from: The Best of The Supremes - The Christmas Collection: 20th Century Masters (Audio CD)

how nice it would have been for Universal to add the one missing track from the original sessions, "O Litttle Town of Bethlehem" and to dig up a lost track, "Jingle Bell Rock." Also added could have been "Won't Be Long Till Christmas" and the other Diana Ross solo Supremes Christmas recordings released on other Motown collections. This is just a reissue of an album already available, when it could have been made an even better package. For Motown fans: "Little Bright Star" is the same song as Tammi Terrell's "I Can't Go On Without You," just different lyrics.

5.0 out of 5 stars It was great to have this. It's a Suprmes album I managed to miss in my collection with bonus tracks! Extremely quick service, January 24, 2012
