Análisis (en inglés) - :
{$The Temptations} got a new lease on life in 1998, when they returned to the {\R&B} Top 40 with {&"Stay"} and sold a million copies of {^Phoenix Rising}. They have tried to replicate that success with diminishing success on 2000's {^Ear-Resistable}, which yielded another {\R&B} Top 40 hit in {&"I'm Here,"} 2001's {^Awesome}, and now {^Legacy}. The challenge, as sole original member {$Otis Williams} acknowledges in the 20-minute interview accessible online through the CD's enhanced feature, is to straddle a sense of the group's tradition and current styles. Certainly, {&"Still Tempting,"} the opening track, prefaced by a {$Williams} spoken introduction, along with the album's title, hark back to {$the Temptations}' history, as do some of the musical and vocal arrangements that provide alternating showcases to soaring tenor and gruff baritone voices. At the same time, the battery of producer/songwriter/musicians responsible for the songs and instrumental beds modestly aims for a semblance of a contemporary sound. There are several appealing numbers, among them {&"Stay Together,"} which is a catchy rhythm song, {&"Love to the Music,"} which has an excellent groove, and {&"You Are Necessary in My Life (The Wedding Song),"} which begins with sweet {\a cappella} singing. These {$Temptations} can sing, there's no doubt of that. What is in doubt is their distinctiveness. Much of the time, they resemble a {$Temptations}-like vocal group, but rarely do they sound like a particular unit. They are therefore dependent on the material, which for the most part is not all that distinctive, either. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
