Celebrate the golden era of soul with The Temptations – Gold, a deluxe 2-CD anthology from Motown/Universal that spans the most iconic and influential tracks of this legendary vocal group. Released in 2005 as part of Universal’s acclaimed “Gold” series, this compilation delivers the ultimate Temptations experience—restored, remastered, and packed with classics.
From the smooth soul of “My Girl” and “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg” to the genre-bending “Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone”, this set follows the group’s full stylistic evolution—from sweet harmonies to psychedelic soul to socially conscious funk. With over 2 hours of music across two expertly curated discs, this collection is a must-have for Motown lovers, collectors, and newcomers alike.
This particular copy is in excellent shape overall. Both discs are clean and ready to play, the booklet is sharp and intact, and while the jewel case shows some moderate surface wear, it remains fully functional and easily replaceable.
An essential addition to any R&B or soul CD collection—grab this one for your shelf or stereo and experience the enduring magic of Motown’s finest.
