Whitfield and the Funk Brothers level a jam that holds truth behind the lyrics being sung.

[@donnagreen4506]

Variety shows where all the guests and host sing together for a finale- love it! They don’t make programs like this anymore!

[@rickw1100]

OMG! I remember seeing this performance as a kid..I always remembered the black and white gloves and the power of the song. I couldn't remember which show it was on. Andy Williams of all places ! Fantastic ! I remember the close ups of Dennis Edwards face as he belted out the lyrics. Great, great performance.... and LIVE too !!!

[@stupullenchannel3525]

No other has or will sound like Dennis Edwards, or the original temps! Also seeing Don Ho and Cass Elliott ...wow!

I like the David Ruffin era Temptations and the Dennis Edwards/Psychedelic era Temptations.

The temptations thread's is what they call groovy the harmony and singing is what groovy

[@jdrawles60509]

I have never seen them perform this song. This has got to be late 1970 or early 1971. And I thought I saw all of their videos. Great stuff!

[@ChrisStevensonPointblank009]

I remember it vividly. The song was new, it was on the Andy Williams Show. It would be on this group's last studio album together "The Sky's The Limit."

[@jdrawles60509]

Yes It is. Ive heard the song ovrr and over again. Just never seen them perform it

[@ChristianMcBrideTV]

Wow! This is RARE!! Thank you @DiscoNights1987. This also HAS to be their rhythm section. Ain't no way in hell Andy Williams' rhythm section was this funky! This also had to be weeks, even days, before Paul's departure and Eddie's, also. What a find!

[@3912James]

I can easily tell. By 1970....Dennis Edwards' Afro was more pronounced than it was in 1968 and 1969. So we're talking late 1970/early 1971.

[@tyliekinc.]

@@3912James ya this looks like around the time they performed Psychedelic Shack In 1970 on Ed Sullivan

Profiles in Pittsburgh working on through me baby truly fabulous. United with the black and white gloves was what we stand for United States of America. Otis Williams of the Temptation group & probably a few in the background are still alive today Patel this wonderful story of this video. Bless all of you vocalist and musicians in this video

[@queenslyric800]

They were getting down once again. My Temptations sounded amazing that night. Proves once again that they can sing anything. Very talented. Most people can't walk and chew gum but these brothers were walking on one beat and singing on another with perfect pitch. Melvin was killing the bass line when he started the song! That's my boo forever. Andy and Mama Cass was gettin' it too. I was in my room shouting ya'll better sing the song! LOL. Thanks for the video.

Now babies, we all knoweth that Uncle loveth his TEMPTATIONS of the Dennis, Otis, Melvin , Paul and Eddie type. Uncle loveth those five gents in a way that he canst not loveth any other five gents !!! But all the other forces coming alongside them (Ed Sullivan and Mama-Cass type) and with them are also being appreciated by this Uncle who only seeth how the world needeth to 'Cometh Together' as per The Beatles !!! And for those being 'too drawn' unto Dennis' voice and looks ... remeber that Aretha Franklin (ReRe) saw him first !!! DO NOT TRESPASS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY !!! Dear publisher 'DiscoNights1987' ... We loveth The Temptations ... and for promoting them ... we only loveth thee too !!!

[@aaronalmon4953]

That was November or December of 1970, Judi Messina; just a few months before Eddie Kendrick's & Paul Williams' sad departure from the Temps. It was also one of their last television appearances with this classic lineup.

[@renaissanceman165]

The very last TV appearance was on the Ed Sullivan Show. One of the songs performed was "Just My Imagination". Eddie was thoroughly pissed by that time, and was ready to leave. He stayed long enough to fulfill their TV itinerary through the spring of 1971 before departing the group. Check it Out! Ciao!!!

[@keyowilson5695]

The lyrics are truly reflective of the international conflicts and political upheaval going on in the late 60s and 70s. I wonder what the Tempts would sing in 2017 to reflect the current state of our world.

Should have been released as a Single, 1st cut Beatles lyrics and Don Ho

[@knockshinnoch1950]

Terrific group, even though it's a lip sync it's great to see these contemporary performances when they were at their peak. We never to got to see nearly enough of the US performers here in the UK through the 60s and 70s. A live appearance on.a UK TV show was a very rare thing!

[@genewalker4153]

Yeah this was Eddie and Paul last album with Sky The Limited. I have the Album and CD. I bought the album back in 1971 and got the CD in 2000. I'm a Temptations fan. I have everyone of there album's. The very first album was Meet the Temptations. They all was around ,22.23. I just found one of their album that got stole from me. Solid Rock album with new Comer's Richard Street and Damon Harris who took Eddie and Paul place. Now that album was hard to find 1972 album. Motown didn't wanna released that again after it sold out. I just found that album 2018 for $12.00. I seen It on another site going for $600.00 way to much. Who ever pay $600 is a fool. That album is not a classic like Meet The Temptations

[@eddielester3589]

Yes Solid Rock is still rare.It seemed to be limited copies when it was printed even when it hit the shelves.I got fortunate to find it in a EJ Korvette Store that was closing in 1976.It may have came out of their Warehouse inventory

[@renaissanceman165]

Yes. I'm an eternal Temps fan, from the "Classic Five" period through Dennis Edwards, and the "Psychedelic Period" on. I also have the "Sky's The Limit" Vinyl album. Check it Out! Ciao!!!

[@tyliekinc.]

The Sky the Limit album came out 1971 because that was when Just My Imagination came out Paul and Eddie last recordings

Still relvant today

[@DanielSchmidt94521]

I never seen this video. I thought I’ve seen it all. Eddie & Paul are still here. I’m guessing this is 1972?

[@jonathanclary3992]

Naw it can't be (1972) Paul Williams was forced to Retire due to his drinking Habit at the same time Richard Street Became his replacement. Eddie couldn't deal with the stress going on in with group and didn't want Otis to let Paul go. Right around (1971) Eddie went over to visit his friend and former Temptations member David Ruffin who Convinced Kendrick of quitting The Temptations and going Solo so by the time norman whitfield their producer came up with the hit song just my Imagination (1971) it became Eddie's last song and soon as the song was done he off stage after the house lights dimmed and never looked back. Eddie Kendrick officially quit the Temptations. And Damon Harris became Kendrick's replacement by (1972)

[@DanielSchmidt94521]

Paul returned for Sky's The Limit. That was 1972.

[@jonathanclary3992]

@@DanielSchmidt94521 Temporarily That Is. I Almost Forgot To Mention That Otis Had Hook Paul Up To Some Oxygen Tanks To Keep Him Breathing. But However Richard Street Sung Backstage As Paul's voice due to his drunken voice. Then he was forced to Retire from singing and dancing. And Richard Street replaced Paul. By (1973) Paul Williams had died.

[@anthonynero1078]

@@DanielSchmidt94521 Skys The Limit came out in 1971 and that album also had Kendricks' last hit song with The Temptations called Just My Imagination. So no, Paul never returned, he never left at the time this album was made
