Info for Gettin' Ready (Remastered)

Gettin’ Ready is the fourth studio album by The Temptations for the Gordy (Motown) label released in 1966. It marks the transition of the group from having Smokey Robinson as its main producer, with new producer Norman Whitfield taking over Robinson’s position. Two #1 R&B hit singles, one from each producer, are included: “Get Ready” from Robinson with Eddie Kendricks on lead, and “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg” from Whitfield with David Ruffin on lead. Also included is the original version of “Too Busy Thinking About My Baby”, which would be rerecorded as a hit for Marvin Gaye in 1969. The album was also one of the last albums to contain tracks co-authored by members of the group until the release of “The Temptations Do The Temptations” in 1976. As with previous Temptations albums, several songs are written by members of The Miracles: Smokey Robinson, Bobby Rogers, Pete Moore, Ronnie White, and Marv Tarplin.

„The marvelous title track alone, with Eddie Kendricks gliding into the stratosphere, made this an instant winner. There were several fine songs that weren't hits, such as 'Not Now, I'll Tell You Later' and 'I've Been Good to You,' and there sure wasn't anything wrong with powerhouse cuts like 'Ain't Too Proud to Beg.' The Temptations would score four straight number one hits in the mid-'60s, each one an unforgettable classic.“ (Ron Wynn, AMG)
