Motown Junkie January 7, 2009
This DVD brought back so many memories. I bought it for my mother for Christmas. We live in the Detroit area and she used to take me to the Motown Revues back in the 1960's. She was very good friends with Melvin Franklin, one of the members of The Temptations, and his family. We used to go to his parents house and watch The Temptations rehearse in their basement. I will always cherish these memories. So, anyone who is a Motown junkie or a Temptations junkie like I am, do not hesitate to purchase this DVD, you won't regret it!
Nice trip down memory lane! November 30, 2008

Best of the Temps Performances August 8, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This DVD is great for people like me who know the music but missed out on the live performances (because I didn't exist yet!). I am now a huge fan of the original Temps. I think my favorite would have been Eddie Kendrick. He was so suave and smooth. Melvin was a great dancer with those pigeon toes and bow-legs. They all had beautiful voices. Now when I hear a Temps song, I can picture the dance routine and those precision moves. I will treasure this DVD forever.
 Emporers of Soul July 5, 2008
This DVD is good in that it presents performances of the original Temps, who are sometimes forgotten due to the many personnel changes over the years. Having the opportunity to view the originals performing many of their hits makes this special. The Temptations are absolutely great! The downside to this DVD is the narration, provided by Otis Williams, which precedes each song. For most avid Temptation fans, his narratives provided little information that was unknown, so could have been eliminated in exchange for more performances. Also, I expected some live performances since I am too young to have enjoyed the original Temptations. Overall, this DVD is worth purchasing.
