1	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!
2	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Funk Brothers (2004) more music like this by The Funk Brothers While it is tempting to write for literally days about the contribution of the Funk Brothers to the Motown legacy, it would be redundant. Other than cold hard cash being paid to the remaining members and their families for their stellar performances and groove archetypes as a way of remedying an injustice, the verbal accolades have all been ... see all copies from $6.85! new only from $6.85!
3	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!
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 $11.49! 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	Cloud Nine/Puzzle People (2000) more music like this by The Temptations Part of Motown's European remastering series of its classic albums, this single-CD compilation of the two LPs Cloud Nine and Puzzle People runs circles around any existing domestic CD of either title for sound quality. Representing much of the group's output for the year 1969, the two albums show the group advancing in the face of adversity -- ... see all copies from $37.49!
8	Motown Legends, Vol. 5 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists The fifth installment of the Motown Legends series pretty much follows the pattern of the others. Save for the leadoff track, Mary Wells' "Two Lovers" (her second-biggest hit behind "My Guy"), most of these songs are generation-defining anthems. Of course, yet again the Supremes dominate the compilation with three songs: "Baby Love," "Back in My ... see all copies from $2.35! new only from $2.99!
9	Songs That Inspired The Motown 25th (1983) more music like this by The Temptations A strange release. Since almost anything from their greatest albums would qualify, what they did and didn't put on this release, as well as the choice of a title, baffles me... Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.55!

13 view cover	At Their Very Best (2001) more music like this by The Temptations From the sweetness of their early material produced by Smokey Robinson in the early '60s through the darker, angrier funk hits with Norman Whitfield at the end of the decade, the Temptations were Motown's steadiest group. The classic early lineup of David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks, Otis Williams, Paul Williams, and Melvin Franklin arguably made one ... see all copies from $12.10! new only from $12.10!
14 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!
15 view cover	The Very Best of the Motorcity Recordings (1996) more music like this by G.C. Cameron G.C. Cameron's career never got on track. After a scintillating start with the Spinners ("It's a Shame"), he neglected to follow them to Atlantic Records. A vocal chameleon, he's at his best impersonating others; just take five records by Cameron by five producers and you'll think you were listening to five different singers. When Smokey Robinson ... see all copies from $14.14! new only from $14.14!
16 view cover	Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 (1970) more music like this by The Temptations Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 is a 12-track overview of the Temptations' late-'60s recordings, containing such hits as "Cloud Rain," "I Wish It Would Rain," "Ball of Confusion," "(I Know) I'm Losing You," "I Can't Get Next to You," "You're My Everything," "Runaway Child, Running Wild" and "Psychedelic Shack." Like its predecessor, Vol. 2 balances hits ... see all copies from $30.00!
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	The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 9: 1969 (2008) more music like this by Various Artists A Diana Ross & the Supremes B-side in 1969 was called "The Beginning of the End," and it's hard not to think that the title applies to Motown in 1969, especially as depicted in the six-disc, 148-track box set The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 9: 1969. Berry Gordy uprooted Motown to Los Angeles at the end of 1968, a move that couldn't help but be ... see all copies from $90.65! new only from $90.65!
