The Temptations

The Temptations

The Temptations (Detroit, 1961), grupo de música soul, rhythm and blues y pop, aunque se han acercado igualmente a distintas fusiones de estilos musicales y al funk con cierta carga política. Fue el más importante grupo vocal masculino de los años sesenta. Estuvo inicialmente formado por cinco cantantes a partir de la fusión de dos grupos de Detroit, The Primes y The Distants. Otis Williams, Elbridge (conocido como El, o Al) Bryant y Melvin Franklin eran ya unos veteranos de la escena musical de Detroit cuando formaron the Distants, que en 1959 grabarían el sencillo "Come On" para el sello local Northern. Por las mismas fechas, the Primes, trío formado por Eddie Kendricks, Paul Williams y Kell Osborne, se trasladaron a Detroit desde su originaria Alabama. Rápidamente, obtuvieron éxito (el mánager crearía una versión en femenino, The Primettes, del que más tarde surgirían The Supremes, con Diana Ross, Mary Wilson y Florence Ballard).

Letra de Psychedelic Shack
Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
People let me tell you about a place I know
To get in it don't take much dough
Where you can really do your thing, oh yeah
It's got a neon sign outside that says
Come in and take a look at your mind
You'd be surprised what you might find, yeah
Strobe lights flashin' way till after sundown
People gather there from all parts of town
Oh yeah, what do I call it
You know it's just across the track
People I'm talking about the psychedelic shack

Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at, oh yeah
You can have your fortune told
You can learn the meaning of soul
There ain't no such thing as time
Incense in the air
'In" signs painted everywhere
I guarantee you this place will blow your mind
Music so high, you can't get over it
So low you can't get under it
Right around the corner just across the track
People I'm talking about the psychedelic shack

Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
Millionaires, kings and queens go there to do their things
You might see anybody there, yeah
Bear skin rugs, tails and beads
Don't really matter what you wear
You can take off your shoes, sit on the floor
Join in and be what you wanna be
Don't you know that it's right
Around the corner just across the track
People I'm talking about the psychedelic shack

Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic shack, that's where it's at
They got a cat there shouting the blues
Talking about payin some dues
People walking around reciting poetry
Screamin guitars and a thousand colored lights
People I'm telling you this place is really out of sight
You can have your fortune told
You can learn the meaning of soul
I guarantee this place will blow your mind
Don't you know it's right around the corner
Just across the track
People I'm talking about the psychedelic shack
