Descripción (en inglés) :
The 20th Century Masters series is the best-selling single-artist line in music history and is being re-released by Universal Music Enterprises (UMe) in its ground-breaking, environmentally-friendly packaging format. A first for the music industry, the standard package (both sleeve and tray) will be completely paper-recyclable, continuing the company's long-standing commitment to being "green."To further reduce the amount of paper in the Eco-Pack, the CD booklet will no longer be offered. Official liner notes are easily accessible on the Internet at http://www.ilovethatsong.com/green.UMe is the first North American music company to replace the traditional jewel case with recycled paperboard sleeves and the plastic tray with trays made from PaperFoam®, a new packaging technology from Shorewood Packaging, a business of International Paper, that is paper-recyclable and biodegradable. Shorewood Packaging is the first North American packaging supplier to produce disc trays from PaperFoam®.Análisis (en inglés) - Amazon.com :
As innovative and influential in their own way as their Southern rock precursors the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd's career was just as star-crossed, perhaps more. Fate dealt them terrible blows in the form of the plane crash that killed singer Ronnie Van Zandt and guitarist Steve and his sister, singer Cassie Gaines; there were subsequent tragedies as well. This set features the biggest hits of the band's original incarnation, such as "Sweet Home Alabama," "Free Bird," "What's Your Name," and "Saturday Night Special," but also includes the potent album tracks "Gimme Three Steps," "You Got That Right," and "That Smell." Skynyrd is overrepresented by greatest-hits sets and live albums, though, and this collection is easily bested by the much deeper collections The Essential Lynyrd Skynyrd and All Time Greatest Hits. No matter how you package it, though, this is still powerful music. --Daniel DurchholzAnálisis de usuario (en inglés) - 1999-12-30
- Good, Not GreatThis is a good album to buy for a very casual Lynyrd Skynyrd fan. All of the southern rock band's most popular hits are here (Free Bird, Sweet Home Alabama, ect.), but I'm sure that the record company could have squeezed a least a few more tracks on this album. The album itself is of great remastered sound quality, and is a great listen all of the way through. Buy this album if you just know that you like Free Bird, Sweet Home Alabama, or any of the other really popular songs on this album.

- Excellent SetWhile "Gold and Platinum" has more tracks, for a budget collection, this one is first-rate with smart song selection and no dross to speak of. For Skynyrd neophytes, I cannot think of a better place to start.

- Good Album but Missing Too MuchThough this is a very good disc, it leaves out too much to be considered the "Best of Lynyrd Skynyrd". Tracks missing include: Tuesday's Gone, Give Me Back My Bullet, The Ballad of Curtis Lowe, Call Me the Breeze, and Simple Man. If you want a true greatest hits go with another album.

- High FlyingLynyrd Skynyrd is one of the greatest rock bands of all-time, and this album reflects it. Lacking only the epic Tuesday's Gone, this collection has some of the greatest rock songs created. Sweet Home Alabama is the quintessential southern rock song, surpassing even the Allman Brothers Band, with its quick bluesy guitar riffs and southern pride lyrics. And of course, there's Free Bird. Perhaps the greatest guitar piece of all time with only a handful of competitors, the 3-guitar attack of Free Bird will draw you in better than almost anything else. Free Bird is unmatched by nearly everything out there, and you can never go wrong with it. Of course, the ever-popular Whats Your Name? is present, as is Gimme Three Steps and all your other favorites of course. But nothing can compete with Free Bird. Even if you buy this album just for that one track, you will get your money's worth and much more. Don't hesistate to pick this one up at all, its very inexpensive and a hell of a buy.

- Caution: This Music Rocks!This is one of the few 20th Century Masters sets that works--at least for the casual fan. Lynyrd Skynyrd's triple-guitar threat and songwriter Ronnie Van Zant's powerful singing on their first five albums was responsible for some of the most amazing rock music of the Seventies. On one reasonably-priced disc you get nearly all of Skynyrd's FM radio staples. There are the hits: "Sweet Home Alabama," "Free Bird," "Saturday Night Special" and "What's Your Name," plus a sampling of other Skynyrd classics like "Gimme Three Steps", "You Got That Right" and "That Smell." However, like all the other releases in this series, it suffers from having too few tracks. Even most casual fans will be left wanting more, which is what makes the two-disc Essential Lynyrd Skynyrd the more logical purchase. At 25 tracks it includes everything on 20th Century Masters and provides a much more complete picture of one of the two best progenitors of Southern rock (the other being the Allman Brothers).
