On this day, @The Temptations released their #1 hit smash "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)" 54 years ago! - Swipe left to learn the story⬅️ Today Temptations fans, is the 54th anniversary of The Temptations all-time classic "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)!" It was released today back in 1971 and later on became another #1 hit, as well as becoming their very first platinum record. The story behind this classic is one of my favorites to hear every now and then. Around this time, Eddie Kendricks time with the Temptations was slowly coming to an end. By then, he had personal issues with his bandmate and defacto leader Otis Williams and didn't like how Motown was handling their money. Paul Williams was struggling with health issues due to his sickle cell disease causing him in a lot of pain and alcohol usage to numb it. The road was also coming to a close for Paul as well. Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong came up with the song in 1969 but they shelved it due to the psychedelic run the Temptations were on at the time. Thankfully, they brought it back when "Unite The World" didn't make the top 30, which was another psychedelic record. During the recording of "Just My Imagination," Otis, Paul, Dennis, and Melvin laid down the background vocals and Eddie ended up staying at Motown all night to record his lead part. The song was released and blew up the charts, eventually becoming another #1 hit song. A few months after its release and reaching the top of the charts, Eddie Kendricks quit the group and went solo. Shortly after, Paul Williams retired from performing due to his health declining. You can say, they both left the Temptations on top. Happy 54th anniversary! Temptations Forever. #TheTemptationsLegacy #TheTemptations #TemptationsForever #Temptations #EddieKendricks #PaulWilliams #MelvinFranklin #OtisWilliams #DennisEdwards #1971 #justmyimagination #happyanniversary #Motown #motownrecords #motownsound #motownlegends #motownmusic #70sstyle #70snostalgia #70smusic #70svibes #70svintage #70ssoul
