The Temptations - House Party (Gordy/Motown, 1975, LP Vinyl) - Vintage

US pressing on Gordy (Motown imprint) of the album House Party from 1975. Soul/Funk with typical Motown elegance: rich grooves, multi-part vocals and warm 70s production – ideal for collectors of classic Detroit soul sounds and a well-rounded addition to the record shelf.

Historical background

The Temptations are among the most important vocal groups of the Motown era (founded in Detroit in the early 1960s). With worldwide hits like "My Girl" and "Ain't Too Proud to Beg ," they shaped the sound of soul and R&B. In the 1970s, they expanded their repertoire to include funkier arrangements and more socially conscious themes – "House Party" perfectly captures this phase: catchy hooks, smooth harmony vocals, and a tight rhythm section.
