Twelve minutes of pure early 1970s, a soul symphony.
Can you dig it?

I remember the 7-minute version. Didn't realize that it was originally nearly 12-minutes.

I dug it back in 1972, and still do today. To paraphrase a reviewer, the silences in the song are deafening, such a vital part of the song. Unlike modern music having a hard-on need to fill every nano second of space with noise.

I still have the Vinyl somewhere,
Mom and Dad bought the album, used to listen to it when I was a kid
I liked it back then for sure. I really like this extended version.
At some point, nostalgia kind of colors your memory. I now kind of like some songs that back then were just 'meh', just because they take me back to a time long gone.
I remember this when BC performed it. It made an impact that has never diminished.
Your post, once again, brings it to the fore.
I can dig it.
Thank you, Face...

Grew up about 2 miles from the original Motown bldg. Knew a guy who had Psychedelic Shack on 8 track that he played in his car no stop. The tempting Temptations brings back alot of good memories.

Just sitting here, sipping on a Topo Chico mocktail, just relaxing and mellow. Remember being mellow?
Oh yeah, sitting in peace.
Peace all y'all.
Thanks Para. .

It was the time when singers could actually sing, and musicians could actually play instruments.

I am trying to remember what movie bits and pieces of this song was played in - and I can't. But I know I have heard this before.

That’s a decade too early for me. I work with some older ladies and they all like the 80’s music. These two have been on the recent playlist and I can dig this. Both awesome songs.
