Music reviews of 20th Century Masters: Millennium CollectionMusic Review: A Legend In Her Own Time
They just don't do it like Barbara Mandrell anymore. She set the standard. She brought style and class to country music and made it "Cool." She was the consumate entertainer. On record, on TV or on stage she gave her listeners everything she had. In October of 1997 Barbara Mandrell left the spotlight and the world of not just country, but all music suffered a great loss. This new compilation from MCA Records brings together some of her best performances. Barbara Mandrell began her career on CBS records in 1970 (for a collection of those songs I recommend SUPER HITS) and moved to ABC (which MCA eventually bought) in 1975 and released "Standing Room Only." From there, her career began to soar. She scored crossover hits with "Married, But Not To Each Other" and "Woman To Woman" in 1977. In 1978 she finally hit #1 with both "Sleeping Single in a Double Bed" and "If Loving You Is Wrong I Don't Want To Be Right." After winning a CMA for Female Vocalist of the Year in 1979, Barbara took herself and her sisters to network television and the hits kept coming. 1981's "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" became her fourth #1 smash and she became the FIRST artist to win the CMA for Entertainer of the Year two years in a row. Although her TV show folded due to health issues her recording career kept on going. She had more #1s with "Til You're Gone" and "One of a Kind Pair of Fools" in 1982 and 1983. The last selection on this CD is 1984's "Happy Birthday Dear Heartache." Shortly after the release of this song, Barbara was involved in a serious accient that almost ended her life and her career. But, she came back in all her glory the following year, proving that she's no quitter. This compilation is a nice collection of songs spanning the years when Barbara was at the top of her form and making herself a true musical legend. Barbara is one of those artists who had left an indelible mark on the face of music and inspired many of the new artists like Shania Twain and Martina McBride who continue in her tradition. If you're a long-time Barbara Mandrell fan this CD is a must for your collection. But, it's also a good album for ANYONE who loves music to have. Not just country. Barbara sang many different styles of music, so there's something for everyone. So buy it already and you'll soon discover why Barbara Mandrell is one of the best....a ture living legend.
