The Temptations moved into world of jazzy pre-rock pop, and showed that great singers can handle anything. While many soul fans were surprised that they issued an album with versions of "Ol' Man River," "Somewhere," and "Taste of Honey," they were hooked once they heard it.

I really like the version of "What now my Love" from the album Temptations Live. The Temptations were Giants and Pioneers of the Arts. They are not just Musicians they are Artist, from one spectrum to another. They surely were a Great Contribution to the WORLD. This particular album "in a mellow mood" showed their range of style from old classics Frank Sinatra type songs,r&b, jazz, etc. They had an original 5 harmony style of their own that only can be duplicated not originated, that's why t
For me, this is their greatest album. My absolute favorite is The Impossible Dream, the way they sing that song brings tears to my eyes, but the entire album stirs my soul.
