Another browsing-inventory purchase.
No songs in the Soundtracks; plenty performed onscreen.
I liked it, but not enthusiastically. The story has a lot of downside(s) for the characters, including tragic deaths. The Temps had a lot of members, 5 at a time, until they did a reunion tour when 7 came together.
Good to hear the music, but a good anthology (video) album could chronicle the career better. I didn't need all the personal stuff.
Lots of good, familiar faces whose names are unfamiliar.
Rated 8.5 (3,599)
