Fantastic...an eyeopener to those who do not know Fleck,
By
This review is from: Greatest Hits . . 20th Century (Audio CD)
I bought this CD on the advise of the Tower records manager in Bangkok ( good taste)whilst never having heard of Bela Fleck and the Flecktones.It was an absolute eye-opener and I am really hooked. The opening with "Sinister Minister" makes you sit up straight and, yes, I cannot wait ontil I have found a good live version of this track. The combination of banjo, mandolin and the virtuoso bass work of Vince Wooten does not cease to amaze me. It contains so many traditional elements and, yet, it is so contemporary. In this age of throw away music it is very satisfactory to listen to a band where every individual member is in absolute control of his instrument and indeed a master on it. It is difficult to put this music into a category except in the category of "very good music". It may be true that for the real aficionados this may not be the best ( see other reviews) but I think for those not familiar with this band it is a very good introduction. I will certainly go out now and buy "Live Art".

Good, but not the best,
By RJC (Bowling Green, MO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Greatest Hits . . 20th Century (Audio CD)
Any Flecktone fan will of course add this to their collection, but the 'Greatest' Flecktone work is 'Live Art'. The two new tracks are classic Flecktones. Buy 'Live Art' first, and then you'll want 'Greatest Hits of the 20th Century'.

OK introduction to band--pick up Live Art instead,
This review is from: Greatest Hits . . 20th Century (Audio CD)
This CD is very good, though not great. The main problem is that the Flecktones is not a singles band. They shine live on stage. Thus to mostly compile tracks from their studio records does not do them justice. I think Live Art is a better introduction to the band. It's a tad more expensive because it's 2CDs rather than one, but you get extended jams and solos that are just incredible. The additional expense is worth it.
