5.0 out of 5 stars Songs from their two albums and an unreleased song, January 11, 2010

This review is from: Christmas Collection: 20th Century Masters (Audio CD)

This CD features tracks from the two Christmas albums the Tempts released in 1970 and 1980. Tracks 1 to 6 are from 1970 and tracks 7 to 12 are from 1980. Every song here has the holiday spirit. My favorite tracks are Silver Bells (with the late Melvin Franklin's deep bass voice), The Little Drummer Boy, White Christmas, This Christmas, Give Love on Christmas Day (they give the Jackson Five a run for their money) and their extended version of Silent Night, which I think is one of the best versions of this song ever recorded.

The last track, O Holy Night, was previously unreleased. Naturally, the Tempts sing it to perfection, like with every other song they've ever done. Did the Tempts ever do a bad song? They were always known for their great harmonies and snazzy wardrobes. Give this CD a listen and take a look at the guys on this CD cover. The songs and the picture say it all. Sadly, most of the original Tempts have passed on, but their music will live forever. This CD is Motown holiday soul at its best.

I grew up listening to this in the house during Christmas season. Not that I'm grown, I still need to hear "Rudolph" before it feels like Christmas. Love it.
