The concept for this volume of CEMA Special Markets' Back 2 Back Hits is clear from its title -- "Two Generations of Genius." It is evenly divided between songs from Judy Garland and Liza Minnelli; unlike the other volumes of Back 2 Back Hits, this disc alternates between the two vocalists instead of presenting their five songs in one block. Although the track selection seems a little haphazard, many of their most famous songs are here -- "Over the Rainbow," "Come Rain or Come Shine" and "San Francisco" for Judy Garland; "Watch What Happens," "Try to Remember" and "My Shining Hour" for Minnelli.

Either way, the disc is an entertaining compilation for the budget-minded. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi
