All the Time (The Temptations album)

All the Time is a 2018 studio album by American soul group The Temptations made up of cover versions of contemporary R&B songs. This is the group's only album to feature Larry Braggs and received mixed reviews and modest Billboard chart success.

Reception

Editors of AllMusic Guide scored this album 2.5 out of five stars, with reviewer Andy Kellman opining that the choice of contemporary songs to cover ends with "mixed results", noting highlights from several individual tracks. Writing for the Associated Press, Mark Kennedy praises the differing musical tones on the album and calls the original compositions "terrific".
