Review
Waylon Jennings' installment in the MCA series 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection features 11 tracks from his mid- to late-'80s albums for the label. In other words, not the prime of his career, but the compilation demonstrates that Jennings did produce some quality work during his time with MCA, landing hit singles like "Will the Wolf Survive?," "Working Without a Net," "What'll You Do When I'm Gone," "My Rough and Rowdy Days," and more. While this isn't the most important or satisfying phase of Jennings' career, The Millennium Collection does a nice job of summing it up, and it's a worthy addition to the collections of devoted fans. ~ Steve Huey, Rovi| 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Wang Chung (2002 Album by Wang Chung) | |
