  • "...the subtle blend of vibes, piano and guitars (as only the Funk Brothers could produce) and the drums are just happily blazing along and that Motown bass drum really drives the whole thing along- booming out beats you didn't know were there! ...And then the Temptations top it all off like nobody else could!" tomovox
    The Temptations "Forever In My Heart" (William "Smokey" Robinson)
    Recored March 30, May 18 and June 1 & 3 1966
    Track originated as "You Make the Negative, Positive"
    Paul Williams (1939 - 1973) lead vocals (tenor/baritone)
    David Ruffin: vocals (baritone/tenor/falsetto)
    Eddie Kendricks: vocals (tenor/falsetto)
    Melvin Franklin: vocals (bass)
    Otis Williams: vocals (tenor/baritone)
    Played in 1982 by rare soul collector/DJ Dave Withers at Top of the World all-nighter, Stafford, England disguised as Detroit Emeralds "Come On Back To Me Baby".
    Along with
    JJ Barnes "It's Killing Me" (Marvin Gaye)
    Prophets "Suspicion" (Originals)
    Lorraine Chandler "It's Too Late" (Gladys Knight)
    Lilian Dupree "He's the Boy I Love" (Marvelettes)
    The unissued tracks
    "...were rejects from the first 'From the Vaults..' 1979 compilation. A mate in LA assisted on it with Tom de Pierrio and he'd taped a lot of the tracks for reference. I was over there in '81 in his flat when he put the tape on and "Forever in my heart" ["Come on back to me baby"] boomed out.
    Got a copy of the tape and brought it back to UK where Dave Withers and I had acetates cut and played them first at Stafford." Rod Shard
    "Tom DePierro and I found a Jobete Music Acetate which was titled: "Come On Back To Me Baby". I have seen it listed as "Come On Back To Me Baby (Forever In My Heat)" and simply, "Forever In My Heart". It was one of those Jobete Music songs with several working titles."

    Great Temptations video montage. I wonder how much thought the writers put into the lyrics, when they seemed to reference other Temps songs. Paul sings "there are two sides to love"...which references their song by that name, which Eddie sang lead on. Richard Street references this same song in their song 'Heavenly'. I can imagine the Temps choreography, with Paul pointing to the other fellas, as he sings the line from their lost and found single 'Give It Up', where he sings about a love that's "too strong for any temptation", had it ever been performed by the group. The only obvious reference the Temps make to their previous hit, is the line from their song 'Stay', where we hear "you will forever be My Girl" spoken by Otis over their own sample of James Jamersons pulsing bass line from their number 1 hit, 'My Girl'.

      In the movie,the Temptations story,the public were invited into motown to listen to thier latest songs.At the end of each track the audience were asked if they would spend thier last buck on a burger or the just played record.I guess the audience were starving hungry when they listened to this track.

    WHY THIS WASNT RELEASED IWILL NEVER KNOW, ALONG WITH ALL THOSE SONGS LIKE" MANEQUIN" AND"HAPPY LANDING" AND THE WHOLE CD. IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT IM TALKIN BOUT, THERE IS A CD CALLED " LOST & FOUND" UNRELEASED MUSIC BY THE TEMPS! THE GOOD THING ITS LIKE THE CLASSIC 5 HAVE PUT OUT A NEW ALBUM! THE DOWN SIDE IS WHY THEY WERENT RELEASED BEFORE, CAUSE THIS CD IS VICIOUS!!!! PAUL SOUNDS LIKE HE DID BACK IN THE DAY AND RUFFIN & EDDIE ,OH LAWD , LISTEN IF YOU LOVE THE TEMPS YOU GOT TO HAVE IT!!!!!! BUT IF YOU WANT ALL OF THE SONGS ARE ON YT!!!! ITS LIKE A TIME CAPSULE REMEMBER "THE LOST & FOUND" YOU GOT TO EARN IT THE TEMPTATIONS FROM THE FIRST SONG WITH RUFFIN YOU WILL BE SMILING SAYING "YEAH"

      @michaelcranstoun8296 Před 5 lety +2

      Apparently back in the day there were people who would decide, possibility by a vote,which songs would get released. I've heard that there were so many recorded songs that it wasn't possible to release them all. Not that that makes any sense to me, just saying that's what I've heard. I agree with everyone that that definitely should have been released. Why was "Just Another Lonely Night " never a hit? It's one of the best Paul Williams songs of all time. Marv Johnson had some great songs that were never released. We'll never know why...
