Good thing Motown's doing this. Hopefully both MG and Tempts DVDs be somewhere no matter what store I go, lol. The only reason I ain't done Amazon is 'cause though I did register for a free account over there, it feels funny ordering stuff without people at your house knowing it, LOL. But again, good lookin' out, Cleo! :thumbsup:

Trying to stay informed and keep informed ((Quick)) And yeah ((Roadie)) I can't figure why they didn't do 1964 or earlier, I know they have footage from the original Motortown Revues

I will be getting this regardless BUT I just hope they stick with the core that was Paul, Eddie, Mel and O. I don't have a desire for Papa Was A Rolling Stone to be on here What they coulda done was have two discs for the Tempts; one with all Ruff then one with all Dennis. Them the Motortown Revue clips would be the bonus

Them the Motortown Revue clips would be the bonus That sounds like a disc I'd definitely call definitive, but seeing those dates, 1965 to 1972, will definitely have Papa on it. I guess it's fair considering that was their final big one

Movie ClipDVD releasesAmazon tentative listing The Temptations- Get Ready Definitive Performances 1965-1972 Features for the first time on DVD, 16 classic full-length performances from the Temptations on American television appearances during Motown’s golden era. This is the first official DVD anthology of classic archival television performances by one of the most successful singing groups of all time. Beginning with a stunning 1965 performance of “The Way You Do The Things You Do” and concluding with the epic “Papa Was A Rollin’ Stone,” filmed in concert in September of 1972 (two weeks before it debuted on the charts), this DVD includes a wealth of vintage performances with re-mastered sound and video. Interspersed between the songs, Otis Williams (the only surviving member of the original Temptations) reminisces about the history of the group in an insightful interview filmed exclusively for this DVD. Released: Sep 12 2006 Courtesy of Reelin in the Years

One step at a time is what Harry and co are doing and it all looks very promising ... it's a shame they don't ask for fans input because that is a good suggestion ((Kay)) and I think we most definitley could have had a double set for Marvin too ... but something is always better than nothing ... the best part for me so far is that they are going for the more rare performances so I guess it is all good huh ... thanks for the update ((Cleo)) ;D

~Press Release~ TWO GREAT MOTOWN DVDS FROM UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP INTERNATIONAL:The Temptations- GET READY! THE DEFINITIVE PERFORMANCES 1965-1972 16 VINTAGE PERFORMANCES FROM THE TEMPTATIONS NOW AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME ON DVD! And - First-Time U.S. DVD Release of Marvin Gaye– Live In Belgium 1981 Reelin’ In The Years Productions and Universal Music Group International are proud to announce the worldwide release of The Temptations–Get Ready! The Definitive Performances 1965-1972 on DVD, September 4, 2006 (except North America) from UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP INTERNATIONAL, and September 12, 2006 (U.S.) from UNIVERSAL MUSIC ENTERPRISES (UMe). Also releasing that day in the U.S. is Marvin Gaye–Live In Belgium 1981, marking the American debut of this rare concert footage in any format. The Temptations–Get Ready! The Definitive Performances features for the first time on DVD Motown’s greatest vocal group in 16 classic full-length performances – 60 minutes of classic archival performances from television and film appearances captured during Motown’s golden era, issued with the full cooperation of the original Temptations and their estates. Continuing in the tradition of the Marvin Gaye–The Real Thing In Performance 1964-1981 – another DVD first – released earlier this year, the Temptations DVD includes a wealth of classic performances with re-mastered sound and video, plus audio-only bonus feature The Temptations in the Motown Studios: 15 original a cappella lead and backing vocal tracks to their greatest hits. Interspersed between the performances, only surviving original member Otis Williams talks about each song and recounts special moments in the history of the group, in a new interview filmed especially for this DVD. The Temptations–Get Ready! The Definitive Performances 1965-1972 begins with a staggering live performance of their first big hit, “The Way You Do The Things You Do,” from the 1965 TV special Murray The K - It’s What’s Happening, that highlights their trademark choreography. The DVD progresses through the group’s Motown career, including all the major hits sung by lead vocalists David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks and Dennis Edwards. There’s rare footage of vintage performances, from #1 hits “My Girl,” “I Can’t Get Next To You” and “Papa Was A Rollin’ Stone” (the latter from the feature film Save The Children, and on home video for the first time) to psychedelic soul masterpieces “Cloud Nine,” “Runaway Child, Running Wild” and “Ball Of Confusion (That’s What The World Is Today).” Further treasures include a bittersweet live performance of the #1 1971 hit “Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)” on The Ed Sullivan Show, lead vocalist Eddie Kendricks’ final performance with the original group; an amazing live 1968 performance of “I Wish It Would Rain” from Hollywood Palace; and a rare version of “Don’t Look Back” from 1965 featuring Paul Williams on lead. Perhaps the rarest footage of all on the DVD shows the Temptations, in color, with the full Funk Brothers band and a bevy of Motown producers and arrangers, recording “Sorry Is A Sorry Word” in the original Motown “Snakepit” studio; it had been filmed for a TV network but never aired. In addition to the television performances, the bonus section of The Temptations – Get Ready! The Definitive Performances 1965 – 1972 DVD includes a host of unique bonus content, including an audio only feature of 15 original a cappella (vocal only) performances of The Temp’s classic hits direct from the Motown vaults, and now available on this DVD for the first time anywhere. Fans will feel as if they’re in the original Motown recording booth with the group when they hear the Temps’ original vocal masters for “My Girl,” “Runaway Child, Running Wild,” “(I Know) I’m Losing You,” “Get Ready” and eleven more. For The Temptations – Get Ready! The Definitive Performances 1965 – 1972 DVD every effort has been made to locate the best possible sound and video; each of the performances, has been re-transferred and re-mastered from the best-quality, original masters (some resting in the television vaults for over 40 years). In the case of lip-sync performances, the original Motown stereo master recordings have been used, replacing the original mono broadcast sound and making for a much more enjoyable viewing and listening experience. The Temptations – Get Ready! The Definitive Performances 1965 – 1972 also features a 24-page booklet with an extensive essay by GRAMMY®-award winning writer, Rob Bowman, including rare photographs and memorabilia. Included in the bonus features section are additional interview segments with the Temptations’ Otis Williams, in which he talks in depth about the Temps early years, Motown and famed Motown choreographer Cholly Atkins. ____________________________________________________________________________ Also released in the U.S. on September 12, 2006 from UMe: Marvin Gaye–Live In Belgium 1981, an hour-long, televised concert from his self-exile in Ostende, Belgium, originally performed July 4th, 1981. Marvin performs 10 of his biggest hits, from “Got To Give It Up” to “How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You),” and a sweet medley of famous Tammi Terrell duets, including “Ain’t Nothing Like The Real Thing.” This specially-priced collection also includes bonus footage, of a candid Marvin Gaye interview along with two rare lip-sync performances, of “I Heard It Through The Grapevine” and “Heavy Love Affair,” from a local Belgian TV show promoting this upcoming show. Additional bonus features is the original a cappella vocal track for “I Heard It Through The Grapevine” and a full-color booklet with liner notes by GRAMMY®-Award winning author Rob Bowman.
