i was wondering if anybody could give me some information on the temptations(songs, time era, etc) a buddy of mine gave me a burnt cd with many songs that i know and enjoy but i for some reason do NOT believe they are all the temptations(kazaa isnt always right, ya know) but ive been searching on different sites such as www.cduniverse.com and what i find doesnt help me much . . . here are some of the songs from the cd . . .

-build me up buttercup
-my girl
-no river high enough
-grapevine (not the stones?)
-boardwalk
-brown eyed girl (not morrison?)
-lean on me
-shout!
-stand by me

Heard it Through the Grapevine was done by CCR first, then Marvin Gaye. Here is a pic of all the Temp songs i got, most are by the original Temps.

but..i can take some guesses....

Lean On Me - Bill Withers
Stand By Me - Ben E. King
Boardwalk - The Platters
No Mountain High Enough - Marvin Gaye & (Tammi Terrell?) and possibly the Supremes
Build Me Up Buttercup - Franki Valli?
cant remember who did Shout (The Isleys?)

I dont think the Temptations ever did Brown Eyed Girl either
(and i think grapevine was gaye then CCR)

go to the link above and serach for "emperors of soul"
its a five disc set i got that i THINK covers just about all of the temptations
i dont think they ever covered any of those songs
