The Temptations are notable for their success with Motown Records during the '60s and '70s and have sold millions of albums, making them one of the most successful groups in music history. Beyond their unique blend of voices and flashy wardrobe, The Temptations became known for their sharp choreography, "The Temptation Walk," which became a staple of American style, flair, flash and class and one of the defining legacies of Motown Records. Millions of fans saw The Temptations as cultural heroes. The group had 37 Top 40 hits to their credit, including 15 Top 10 hits and a quartet which soared to number one on the R&B charts. They have 15 number one singles, and 17 number one albums. The Temptations were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989.

The Four Tops were among a number of groups who established the Motown sound heard around the world during the 1960's. Their first Motown hit, "Baby I Need Your Loving," made them stars. The group's popularity endured in the '70s and into the '80s with hits such as "Ain't No Woman (Like The One I've Got)" and "When She Was My Girl," making them one of the few groups to have hits in three consecutive decades. In 1990, with 24 Top 40 pop hits to their credit, The Four Tops were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.
