Photographer: Aaron Rapoport. Unknown Contributor Role: Otis Williams & the Charms . "The Temptations?" you inquire. "You Mean the old Motown group? 'Can't Get Next to You,' 'I Wish it Would Rain,' those guys?" Well yes, but as the success of AWESOME proves, the Temptations are no oldies outfit but rather a solid 21st century R&B group fully capable of taking their place in the contemporary music scene. Though Otis Williams is the only remaining member from the original Temptations lineup, this fivesome successfully melds the lush, harmony-laden magic of the group's vintage '60s era with thoroughly current-sounding production. The love ballad has always been one of the Temptations' greatest strengths, and there's no shortage of that here, whether the love in question is happy ("Swept Away") or sad ("Lady," "Hurt so Bad"). If fans of the original band aren't put off by an abundance of programmed synthesizers and electronic rhythms, they'll find much to enjoy in the smooth vocal harmonies of the 21st-century Temptations.
