Editorial Review: Grandfather though he may be, Tom Jones still stalks the stages of the world clad in a tuxedo, the very personification of testosterone-fueled cool. Thanks to a career made mostly on the stage, where women continue to pelt him with undergarments, his image is well defined. His recorded legacy is somewhat more diffuse, though, as this set amply proves. There's torrid main-room Vegas fare such as "It's Not Unusual," "Delilah," and "She's a Lady," plus the coy "What's New Pussycat" and the bombastic Bond theme, "Thunderball." But Jones also scored, somewhat surprisingly, with country-flavored material such as "Green, Green Grass of Home" and "Detroit City." Like the other 20th Century Masters sets, this one is inferior to a previously existing greatest-hits package--in Jones's case, the 1998 Best of Tom Jones. Compared to that more generous collection, there's not enough here to get your panties in a bunch, much less make you want to wing them at Mr. Jones. --Daniel Durchholz

Rating: - 20th Century Masters - The Millennimum Collection - The Best of Tom Jones
I was little disappointed with one song. I love one song was an original "It's Not Unusual" and it's doesn't sound like an original record in earlier which I saw on the video. Sound like second record with different music....
Rating: - Tom sells his songs without even trying--but the CD could have added more
20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Tom Jones is certainly a budget priced CD for those of us on a budget; but I'm not so sure that it truly has all of his "best" hits. The quality of the sound, however, is quite good and the artwork is about par for this CD series.
"It's Not Unusual" starts the CD set with Tom singing his best--and that's pretty darn good! Tom sings with all his heart and I can see why he would appeal to women. Tom possesses the ability to ... Read More
