I first encountered this song about 85, almost 20 years after the fact, during the First Motown Retrospective Era, early 90' s being the second, after having read that it was the quintessential Motown Song. I have heard two versions and think I prefer the one with less brass which was the version first heard.

As a musician I am happy that the West Coast Cats had a chance to shine, since they recorded good performances. As a Motown Fan, give me the Snake Pit. If she had recorded all of her output in the Motor City...............
