Party of the Millennium collects 28 hits from the '40s through the '90s, including Glenn Miller & His Orchestra's "In the Mood," Bill Haley & the Comets' "(We're Gonna) Rock Around the Clock," Roy Orbison's "Oh Pretty Woman," Van McCoy's "The Hustle," the Bangles' "Walk Like an Egyptian" and Los Del Rio's "Macarena." Songs by Tone Loc, Chubby Checker, the Pointer Sisters, 2 Unlimited and Chuck Berry round out this collection, which is bookended by two versions of "1999" and also includes Guy Lombardo's "Auld Lang Syne" to help ring in the new year. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
