    Favorite Temptations Psychedelic song?

    I love the psychedelic soul era Temptations. Especially the long cuts because the Funk Bros. could break out and jam. This is my favorite. Paul really sings the blues hard on his part.

    "Hum Along and Dance" was my personal favorite from this period.

    Psychedelic Shack is my personal favourite of all their songs. The extended version is even better.

    "I need you" from 1990 is a standout for me..... and i always liked "i aint got nothin" and "mother nature" from all directions...
    Saying that, none of these are actually that long

    Take a stroll thru your mind and Love can be anything are proper trippy!!

    Oooooh... there are so many... "Don’t Let The Joneses Get You Down"... "You Need Love I Do [[Don't You?)"... "Pyschedelic Shack"... "Unite The World"... mmmhmm

    Some are probably too weird and trippy for me but most are good

    "Law Of The Land" is probably my favourite actually

    My favorite psychedelic Tempts track is "Run Away Child [[Running Wild)". In it's full length version on Cloud Nine, it's 'psychedelic soul' at it's very best. And I love "Psychedelic Shack", "Hum Along And Dance/Take A Stroll Through Your Mind" & "Smiling Faces Sometimes". I also think that The Temptations 'psychedelic soul' era was very influential on other vocal groups; you could draw a straight line from "Cloud Nine" to records like The Impressions "Check Out Your Mind".

    I remember being at college and first hearing the full length version of Runaway Child... me and my friends couldnt stop laughing when we heard "i want my mummy...."

    Smiling Faces Sometimes is another fave of mine. I get why the Undisputed Truth's version got the single release and became a hit, but The Temptations version is a masterpiece, before Masterpiece, ha ha ha!

    Mono 45 version knocks spots off the album version.
