Shorewood Packaging is the first North American packaging supplier to produce disc trays from PaperFoam®.

4.0 out of 5 stars Re-Mix, March 13, 2008

With a group that has been over-compiled, often unsatisfactorily, a very interesting exercise is to open up the iTunes store (I should probably also suggest using the Amazon music store too), and listen to the different versions of the songs on the various anthologies, for example "My Girl" or "Get Ready" which are on almost all of them. The mixes on this CD (#1's) seem to be unique to this release, with very interesting accents on horns, background vocals, and other instrumentation too often buried in the mix, especially in the Anthology release, where many of the early songs are inexplicably presented in their mono form.

Even though I was just a child when much of their hits were made, I was still raised on much of the Motown and Stax soulful sounds. Just amazes me to hear David Ruffin's raspy but commanding voice as well as the unmistakable and inimitable, Eddie (Keep On Truckin') Kendricks...as well as the only living Temptations survivor still playing venues, Dennis Edwards. My dad is going to LOVE rolling down the street listening to this and recalling wonderful years and youthful days gone by, of growing up in rural Georgia!

These are great songs but..........this compilation was put out purely with corperate ideals in mind and you can pick between it and The Ultimate Collection,Anthology-The Best of The Temptations,Gold,Psychedelic Soul or the boxed set Emperors of Soul and be more satisfied.These songs are victims of pure oldies radio ware and tare.
