#ChurchOfRockAndRoll #99 Motown & Temptations producer Norman Whitfield. Most celebrated moments: I Heard It Though The Gravevine (1968) + Papa Was A Rolling Stone ('72). Personal favourite: Psychedelic Shack ('69), all of which he also co-wrote #NormanWhitfield #PsychedelicSoul

#Interestingly The Undisputed Truth never really got the spotlight… But they were the ‘Frankenstein’s laboratory’ for Norman Whitfield’s wildest ideas… and in that lab, “Smiling Faces” was the lightning in the bottle. #TheUndisputedTruth #NormanWhitfield #OneHitWondered

The Temptations might have been Norman Whitfield & Barrett Strong’s primary ‘vehicle’ for experimentation. They cranked out classics like “Cloud Nine” (Motown’s first Grammy winner), “Just My Imagination,” & the iconic “Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone”. #NormanWhitfield #BarrettStrong #OneHitWondered
