Interestingly, DFTMC states that "I Want Her Love" was an overdub on a Temptations track ... does anyone know what Temptations track that might have been?

It was in fact I Want Her Love...the track had been assigned (as was common pratice) to the Tempts but they never recorded a vocal...Jimmy did #Post#: 10574-------------------------------------------------- Re: I Want Her Love By: Roger Date: July 10, 2023, 3:42 am --------------------------------------------------------- Pity that ... It would have been interesting to hear Eddie K singing that song. Roger *****************************************************
