1	Gold (2005) more music like this by The Temptations With an onslaught of greatest-hits compilations to their name, finding the ideal Temptations anthology can prove to be a daunting task for the die-hard fan as well as for those simply looking for the hits. Granted, there are several in print that are passable but by no means thorough surveys. And aside from the onslaught of midrange budget-line ... see all copies from $10.99! new only from $11.75!
2	Anthology [1995] (1995) more music like this by The Temptations A definitive overview of the Temptations' career at Motown, Anthology was first released on LP in 1973, revamped in 1986, and updated once again for the CD era in 1995, with modern remastering technology and new packaging. The 1995 version tinkers with the selections a bit, appends a few later singles released after the original issue, and adds a ... see all copies from $12.50! new only from $37.39!
3	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Temptations, Vol. 2 (2000) more music like this by The Temptations No company knows how to recycle product like Motown, who seems to have repackaged most of their significant output dozens of times, and the rest hardly less than that -- though the truth is that a lot of Motown product has vanished into obscurity, never (thankfully) to be seen again (does anybody really want to remember Motown taking aim at FM ... see all copies from $4.49! new only from $4.68!
4	Psychedelic Soul [US] (2003) more music like this by The Temptations Two big changes happened for the Temptations in 1968. First, they parted ways with David Ruffin and brought in former Contour Dennis Edwards as lead vocalist. Edwards brought a rougher-edged soul sound to the group with his raw vocals. Secondly, they decided that the world of music was changing and they were standing still. The group went to ... see all copies from $16.72! new only from $16.72!
5	My Girl: The Very Best of the Temptations (2002) more music like this by The Temptations At the time of the release of the two-disc Temptations compilation My Girl: The Very Best of the Temptations, Motown had in print a five-CD box set, Emperors of Soul; a one-disc Ultimate Collection; and two volumes of the midline-priced 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection on the group (not to mention umpteen older comps). So, this TV ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $39.99!
6	Greatest Hits [Classic World] (2000) more music like this by The Temptations see all copies from $10.32! new only from $10.32!
7	Masterpiece (1973) more music like this by The Temptations Norman Whitfield was always the Motown producer who had the most daring creative vision for The Temptations; he was the man who helped them turn psychedelic (well, sort of) with "Cloud Nine" and "Psychedelic Shack", and when the group's career had hit a slump in the early 1970's, he brought them back to the top of the charts with the brilliantly ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $9.00!
8	Number 1's: The Temptations (2007) more music like this by The Temptations Released in early 2007 as part of Universal's extensive and cheaply packaged Number 1's: Temptations series (see also: volumes dedicated to James Brown and Marvin Gaye), this disc compiles 19 number one R&B singles from the Temptations. It's worth mentioning that some of the inclusions -- "The Way You Do the Things You Do," "You're My Everything," ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $10.39!
9	Get Ready (2002) more music like this by The Temptations see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
10	Anthology [Motown] (1981) more music like this by Grover Washington, Jr. see all copies from $1.99!
11	Anthology [1973] (1973) more music like this by The Temptations Since supplanted by a few new anthology releases, this initial Temptations overview will still be an attractive slice of soul history for bargain-bin-minded music-lovers. Spanning close to ten years, the 41 tracks here cover the group's prime, from the early Smokey Robinson hits ("The Way You Do the Things You Do," "My Girl") on through Norman ... see all copies from $12.38!
12	Pure American Soul, Vol. 2: 70's (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $4.80! new only from $4.80!
13 view cover	Legends (2006) more music like this by The Temptations At this point in the Temptations' career, there are as many (if not more) greatest-hits compilations and anthologies available than there are original releases. This has led to confusion and an unnecessary saturation of releases to choose from. Legends definitely offers up the goods over its 16 tracks, including some of their most famous works ... see all copies from $6.52! new only from $6.52!
14 view cover	In Japan (2004) more music like this by The Temptations Prior to being reissued in a limited-edition run of 5,000 copies by Hip-O Select, the Temptations' In Japan (1973) was only available as an import title. The performance was recorded while the vocal quintet were touring in support of their Masterpiece (1972) long-player. The lineup included Dennis Edwards, Richard Street, Damon Harris, Melvin ... see all copies from $16.89! new only from $16.89!
15 view cover	The Essential Collection (2003) more music like this by Grover Washington, Jr. see all copies from $6.48! new only from $6.48!
16 view cover	Papa Was a Rolling Stone (1989) more music like this by The Temptations I rate these skimpy made-for-boom-boxes cassettes compiled by Motown in the late '80s rather highly. All featured solid overlooked and neglected album tunes anchored by a couple of mega-hits. Ex-Temp Glenn Leonard's shimmering falsetto shines twice: inspiring on "Go For It" and mesmerizing on the soulful, questioning "Is There Anybody Else." ... see all copies from $8.00!
17 view cover	Psychedelic Soul [UK] (2000) more music like this by The Temptations Once Norman Whitfield caught the reins of Motown's strongest act (and the one closest to Berry Gordy's heart), he recorded hit after hit, stretching from 1968's "Cloud Nine" to 1973's "Masterpiece." But despite some seriously groovy covers, the Temptations' LPs of the era suffered from Motown's unwillingness to ever commit fully to any one ... see all copies from $13.64! new only from $13.64!
18 view cover	Soul Box (1973) more music like this by Grover Washington Jr. The early work of alto saxophonist and composer Grover Washington, Jr. is a rare and beautiful thing to behold. His entire Kudu period, marked by the albums Inner City Blues, All the King's Horses, Soul Box, Mister Magic, and Feels So Good, is brilliant, solid urban groove jazz played with grace, mean chops, and slippery funkiness. Soul Box, a ... see all copies from $9.39! new only from $9.39!
