The Temptations: Wings Of Love (Tamla Motown)****
Vivien Goldman, Sounds, 15 May 1976
VERY NEAT structure to the new Temps release. Side one has all the funk, all the dancers, and Side two has what you could call either ballads or psychedelia. Means you don't have to keep switching tracks if you're boppy or laid-back. Very thoughtful of you, chaps.
