On their first studio album in eight years, the Temptations revert to covers, as they did with multiple full-lengths earlier in the 2000s. This time, the group, still led by lone original member Otis Williams, selects mostly contemporary material. They excel with imaginative takes on Maxwell's "Pretty Wings," Sam Smith's "Stay with Me," and John Mayer's "When I Was Your Man," pouncing on the opportunity to accentuate the latter's allusion to the work of Motown peer Marvin Gaye. "Waitin' on You" is the best of the few originals, easily mistakable for a (cleaned-up) take on a Jaheim hit. With each cover choice popularized by a solo artist, the set is a subtle reminder that vocal groups are nearly extinct. ~ Andy Kellman

実に8年ぶりの新作は、新メンバーを迎えた現体制で初のアルバムだ。基本はカヴァー曲で、エド・シーランやブルーノ・マーズ、マックスウェル、ジョン・メイヤーらの定番を重厚なハーモニーで披露。しなやかなマイケル・ジャクソン"Remember The Time"やブルージーに仕立てたウィークエンド"Earned It"も光るが、包容力のある素晴らしいバラード"Waitin' On You"などのオリジナル曲がやはり格別の良さ。
