It's hard to find an original copy of this classic Temptations single, especially in this condition! In the "You learn something new every day" department, it turns out that the common reissue of this tune--for example, the one we sell from Collectables--is only about half as long as the original. It's about 3 1/2 minutes long, whereas the version on the original Gordy release is nearly 7 minutes! (I recorded both to verify the times.) You lose not only some dynamite instrumental buildups, but also a verse or two. Thanks to a customer for pointing this out to me! The reissue version is probably an edited version that appeared on the promo release. The B side of this single is a 4:49 instrumental version.
Note: This single is from a large collection we've purchased whose records typically have mint or near-mint audio and near-mint vinyl. The labels are near mint as well, but the owner had a habit of writing a date in small print on the B side label. In this case, the date is on the A side label (see scan). Included is a vintage Motown factory sleeve.
