No R&B group was classier than The Temptations; none was more successful in its era than the Commodores, and none had more style than Cameo. Now DVD compilations for each, featuring five music videos apiece - digitally remastered in audio and video, many making their U.S. DVD debuts - join the groundbreaking UMe series 20th Century Masters/The DVD Collection, the video companion to 20th Century Masters/The Millennium Collection, the most successful single artist series of albums in history. Each DVD will be released August 3, 2004.
The Best Of The Temptations (Motown/UMe) offers the most popular male vocal and soul group in the world during an era when it could be seen with the advent of the music video and its influence could be heard via a new generation at the top of the charts. Included is the video to "Standing On The Top," the group's 1982 collaboration with funkmaster Rick James for their Reunion album that returned The Temptations to the R&B Top 10 for the first time in seven years. Along with the video for another R&B Top 10, "I Wonder Who She's Seeing Now" (1987's Together Again), are a trio from the '90s: a classic remake of "Time After Time" (1995's For Lovers Only); "Stay," a #1 Urban Adult Contemporary hit (1998's Phoenix Rising), and the Top 40 R&B "I'm Here," produced by R&B Star JOE, from the Grammy-winning 2000 album Ear-Resistible.
