AMG Review of 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Jets

All Music Guide

The Jets' 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection gathers a dozen of the group's breezy mid- to late-'80s singles, including their biggest hits, "Crush" "Make It Real," and "You Got It All." Listeners who only know the group from these singles will be pleasantly surprised by the strength of the Jets' other material, particularly up-tempo tracks like "Private Number," "Curiosity," and "Sendin' All My Love," which mix the energy of Paisley Park urban pop with the bubblegum sweetness and innocence of decades-earlier styles. While the selections on this collection aren't as eclectic as those on Then & Now & Wow, The Millennium Collection is a solid collection of the Jets' most recognizable work.
