Just noticed on Amazon that several 70's Temptations releases, including "Masterpiece", "Solid Rock", and "Psychedelic Shack" are being released on CD in June, 2018, retail price less than $10.

It appears "Masterpiece" will be on CD for the first time.

It's been available on CD as imports in the past, but this looks like we will finally get a domestic release, and perhaps, a better mastering.

Perhaps they are doing what they did with many of the Jackson 5 reissues about a decade ago, give us good mastering with a good price.

The photos on amazon.com are those of the Elemental releases, discussed in length a few days ago on the SOLID ROCK thread.
If so, SKY’S THE LIMIT and PUZZLE PEOPLE should also get released.

At $9, they are quite cheap and an opportunity not to miss.

I purchased the 2fer A Song for You/Masterpiece CD new and sealed back in 2013. I didn't know that it was an import or maybe I wasn't paying attention. Paid $9.30 USD; now it's selling new and used for over $90 USD.

There have been threads on these releases previously as they're the Elemental releases [[I think they're already available in Europe). See thread below for example with reviews of these releases.
