Review

If you are looking for new recordings of the Temptations this should satisfy you wholly. Obviously missing are the passionately strained but emotionally deep vocals of David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks that made so many of these gems so memorable. The songs are are still just as memorable and important as they were decades ago. ~ Rob Theakston, All Music Guide
