Temptations - Definitive Performances [DVD]
The performances are all live and have been enhanced in quality. Considering they are on average 45 years old, the picture quality is outstanding. The performance of "The way you do the things you do" has the worst image quality but was still very much worth including. The vocals to each performance, which in most cases were lip-synced and aired on TV in mono, have been replaced with original Motown stereo masters. There is also the option on the disc to listen to a cappella performances of 13 of the songs. The a cappella tracks are totally stunning in quality, as are the Motown stereo masters with the full instrumentation.I believe that the Temptations were ahead of their time with slick choreographed dance routines and stunning vocal performances from David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks, Otis Williams, Paul Williams, Melvin Franklin and later Dennis Edwards.
Then there are the "in between track" interviews with Otis Williams (the only surviving, original member of the Temptations. There is also the option to watch a longer, fuller interview with Otis Williams - or to watch the tracks seperately, without the interviews.
A 24 page colour booklet with notes and rare photographs is also included.
To give this DVD 5 stars seems wholly inadequate. It is quite simply superb. I love it and can't recommend it highly enough.
