I have just watched the Kings Of Soul on BBC4 which featured the The Temptations singing 'I Can't Get Next To You' from their 1970 apperance on Top Of The Pops in the UK. The performance only featured four members of the group, for some reason, Eddie Kendricks was not present. Presumably, the session was recorded during their UK tour of that year which also included their performance at The 'Talk Of The Town' where all five members were present.
Does anyone know why Eddie was absent from the groups appearance on TV but was able to make the Talk Of The Town engagement.
