Format:Audio CD
Amazon service v good it came quickly, the price was right, no problems. The C D itself is up there with most of their work apart from perhaps their early work. Yes a good C D worth buying.

50 years on and yet another album from one of the worlds greatest male vocal groups.
Whilst the line up may change and all the songs be strong as those past, we have yet another consistently good album. Excellent vocals throughout.

Still Here, Still Temptin', Still Harmonious And Still Delivering Quality
5 May 2010
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
STILL HERE is an absolutely fantastic CD with a refreshing collection of new songs. The CD demonstrates The Temptations' ability and tradition to record excellent ballads as well as socially conscious and relevant songs using five-part harmony. I congratulate and thank Otis Williams for being the "glue" to hold the concept and tradition together throughout the years despite their rather frequent change in group membership due to a variety of reasons. The Temptations have once again gathered a terrific membership in which fans can look forward to hearing their next new CD and in concert. Each member is wonderfully featured by singing lead in segments of songs.
I have always enjoyed The Temptations songs when their co-leads are featured such as the historic David Ruffin & Eddie Kendricks, then Dennis Edwards & Damon Harris/Glen Leonard (with periodic leads by Richard Street), then Ali-Ollie Woodson & Ron Tyson. Often these duo performances included periodic leads by Richard Street, the smooth voice narration (i.e., rapping) of Otis Williams and the deep bass contributions by Melvin Franklin in order to provide full harmony at all levels.
Well once again, the greatness is back!!! The Temptations have returned with their use of three stellar lead singers of Ron Tyson, Terry Weeks and Bruce Williamson while also including the use of Otis Williams' smooth rapping and Joe Herndon's deep bass contributions. When listening to both their new CD "STILL HERE" and their previous one "BACK TO FRONT" of classic cover songs, it's obvious that The Temptations have embraced and are committed to putting out quality music with ol' skool flavor.
The new CD has new songs titled "Listen Up" and "Change Has Come". Listening to these songs harken back to the good ol' skool days the Tempts performed socially relevant songs such as "Ball Of Confusion," "Message From A Black Man," "Cloud Nine," and "Runaway Child, Running Wild" All of these songs have socially meaningful lyrics as fantastic rhythms.
The ballads on the CD titled "Still Here With Me," "Woman," and "Hold Me" are absolutely wonderful.
FInally, just in case any of The Temptations happen to read this review, I beg of you to please remain together and continue performing as a group. At long last, The Temptations have compiled a group of members who obviously compliment each other's vocal talents. The song writers and producers of the CD were perfect for the overall concept and inclusion on the CD. The resultant quality clearly comes through with each song for each of the two consecutive CDs most recently released. Your fans have awaited the return of such consistent excellence for many years. Please do not disappoint us again by going through another membership change.
Great job!!!!!

Temptations for 2010!
4 May 2010
Format:Audio CD
I just don't know what to say but this release has been coming for sometime. Each release since Phoenix Rising has been a joy but this is classic stuff and their best since they rose from the ashes of the oldies circuit. Bruce Williamson has been fully integrated now and to hear Otis, Terry, Ron, and Joe with Bruce is amazing. This is their first non covers release since Legacy and it is very appreciated. Still here? ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great traditional R&B
22 Jun 2010
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This CD ia an excellent example of "Traditional R&B". I think it's a shame that for whatever reason (lack of record company support, the status quo of R&B radio stations not to play older artists, etc.)this CD is not getting airplay. There are some fabulous songs on this CD,(One Of A Kind Lady, First Kiss, Listen Up, Woman are my favorites).
Also, Kudos to Otis Williams for, no matter who's in the group, keeping that unmistakable Temptations harmony! Great Work, Tempts.
