Thanks for this! Warmly reminds me of driving in the back of my parents station wagon.

Wow, a comment from a staff member, thanks RJ. I did time in the back of a station wagon when I was young as well. Keep the memories alive 8 tracks at a time.

Thanks Dorothy for the props! It is ex Contour singer Dennis Edwards, it's the way Norman Whitfield produced the album that give Dennis' voice that rough edge. That is what he was going for, I think it works really well. Cloud Nine is a fantastic lp front and back.

Wow, who's singing on Cloud Nine by The Temptations? It doesn't sound like Dennis Edwards to me, and I was just curious. I love all of your mixes, by the way. Wide variety and all good genres. :)
