Beer Cans And Empty Hands/ Silent Treatment

This group sounds a lot like late-1960s Temptations under Norman Whitfield, a la "Cloud Nine." Note: This copy comes in a vintage Atlantic/Atco Records factory sleeve (has writing on one side). The labels have a hint of ringwear in spots (see scan). The A side audio is a clean near-mint, but I did hear some light surface noise on the B side.
