A MOTOWN SNAPSHOT FLASHBACK: THE TEMPTS, 1968!
The third single, “Please Return Your Love to Me“, features Kendricks on lead, and was released in July after Ruffin’s departure. The song’s b-side, “How Could I Forget” (led by Paul Williams), is not included here, because it was newly recorded on June 29 to accompany the a-side. The album’s producers were credited to Norman Whitfield, Smokey Robinson, Henry Cosby, Harvey Fuqua, Deke Richards, and Johnny Bristol. The LP was recorded in 1967 and completed in March 1968.
