Collecting all three Temptations sets in Motown's digital download series into a 45-song sequence, this set is really pretty wonderful, featuring recordings from all of the Temptations's Motown phases, and it reveals again -- not that it was much of a secret -- what a singular and brilliant group they were, regardless of the lineup. Here we have the irresistible gospel-pop of "Get Ready" bumping up against the sweet regret of "I Wish It Would Rain" and the elegantly masterful "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone," and oh, everything in between is pretty good, too. It's the Temps. It's Motown. You can't go wrong.

This is one of the most classic R&B Christmas albums ever recorded; the Temptations come steppin' in prime form. With a chiming introduction, "Give Love on Christmas Day" is an uplifting jingle showcasing Glenn Leonard's unwavering falsetto on lead. "Everything for Christmas" has mellifluous background vocals, with string and horn arrangements rounded out by Richard Street's indelible delivery. "The Christmas Song" and "Silent Night" are two incomparable selections featuring various members on lead, including Melvin Franklin's admirable bass exhibition. Dennis Edwards shines on the jubilant "This Christmas," which also features a spirited musical interlude.
