Although 1975's „A Song For You“ was the last truly great Temptations album, it's a killer, and it should come as a revelation to anyone who thinks the band didn't do anything worthwhile after Dennis Edwards took over lead vocals following the departures of David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks. Edwards's gruffer voice does take a bit of getting used to for those accustomed to Ruffin and Kendricks's smooth sounds, but he's a fiery, impassioned lead singer. His delivery of the Leon Russell-written title track shreds not only the better-known Carpenters version, but also the Donny Hathaway rendition that many feel is definitive. The other highlight is the scorching "Shakey Ground," a cataclysmic funk powerhouse co-written by Funkadelic guitar legend Eddie Hazel, who delivers some searing solos on the track. Longtime Temptations fans consider this one of the group's finest albums, up there with „Cloud Nine“ and „In A Mellow Mood“.

The Temptations - A Song For You (1975) & Masterpiece (1973) [1986, Reissue] Music

Posted by BlondStyle at Jan. 22, 2022

These two albums are almost perfectly suited to each other, representating the peak of the Temptations' early- to mid-'70s output. "A Song for You" was a rare Berry Gordy co-production (necessitated by Norman Whitfield's departure from the company) Gordy and Jimmy Bowen came up with an album that combined a powerful, funky beat with gorgeous singing (especially by Dennis Edwards) and a range of superb songs. These tapes sound extraordinary on this release, like they're really being heard properly for the first time. "Masterpiece" was precisely that for producer Whitfield, comprised of just six songs, every one of them a winner, including the epic-length title song, possibly the best extended track ever to come out of Motown Records. The two albums fit together almost seamlessly (though one wishes that "Masterpiece"'s tracks were first on the disc), and the only flaw is that there are no expanded notes or album credits.

Genre: Rock, art rock, soft-rock, pop-rock

Rock ballad - type of song in rock music, which is a slow, melodic lyrical song. Ballads are not considered a separate genre in rock, as they recorded a group of almost any genre. The term "ballad" dates back to the eponymous poetic genre, but retains little connection with him. Ballade in the classical meaning close to the epic: it is a short story told in verse. Among the fans there is a tradition to light candles or lighters in the performance of ballads, and shake them to the beat of the song. Forbidding rockers in an instant become thin-skinned romantics. Songs that cause a lot of memories and emotions. This distribution represents eight disk other than rock ballads from distant nineties. Made-disc collections - Sweden.
