The first Temptations single of the post-David Ruffin era was a marked departure from their previous hits. The lyrics were rather psychedelic in nature; some said they were pro-drug use, though strong denials were issued by all involved. Newest member Dennis Edwards was prominently featured, but all five Temps traded lead vocals here. The wah-wah was by Detroit studio guitarist Dennis Coffey, who would appear on many other Motown hits before his 1971 solo smash “Scorpio.”
