It's hard to find an original copy of this classic Temptations single these days, yet there's a very good reason why it's worth seeking out. In the "You learn something new every day" department, it turns out that the common reissue of this tune--for example, the one 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: Although this copy looks almost new, there is very light surface noise that's audible for the first 30 seconds or so at the beginning of the track.
