Still Here

Product Description

The Temptations: Still Tall, Talented, Tantalizing... Still Here. On the eve of their 50th anniversary, the Temptations are back with their 49th album, appropriately titled Still Here. It's their first since Back To Front, which hit the R&B Top 20 album charts in 2007. Across six decades, the mighty Temptations have thrilled audiences worldwide with classic songs, pinpoint choreography and a lineup of great singers that never fails to deliver. Members of the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, winners of Motown first Grammy® Award, one of the greatest groups of all time, the "Tempts" are iconic masters of pop and soul. Still Here continues the Temptations tradition. Infused with old-school harmony and contemporary touches, the album is executive produced by original Temptation Otis Williams, who produced several tracks on the album. Among the highlights:

"Change Has Come" is an energetic tribute to the election of President Barack Obama and a rousing performance by lead singer "Big" Bruce Williamson, who is equally exciting on the nostalgic "Going Back Home." "Hold Me," featuring Terry Weeks, is a beautiful ballad, one of several slow jams on the album, like "Woman," featuring long-time high tenor Ron Tyson, who also simmers on the mid-tempo "Warm Summer Nights." "Swatyismygirlooyeah" is a modern update of the Motown chestnut "My Girl." "Listen Up" is a cautionary tale, a new millennium version of "Ball Of Confusion." "Soul Music" pays homage to great music from "back in the day" - a sound that remains vital today. Same as the Temptations. Still Here.
