Just Memories
Temptations founder Eddie Kendricks has made some great solo albums over the years, but few are quite as good as 1972's My People...Hold On. For starters, it includes two of his finest singles, the heart-aching "Date With The Rain" (still brilliant all these years later) and proto-disco dancefloor gem "Girl You Need a Change of Mind". But the goodness doesn't stop there. Throughout, you'll find stone cold classics, from the low-slung conscious brilliance of "My People... Hold On" (Kendricks in "What's Going On" mode, basically), to the sunshine soul cheeriness of "I'm On The Sideline", which sounds like a looser take on the trademark Motown sound. If you don't already own a copy, this reissue should be an essential purchase.
