Superb track. Don’t forget those unsung heroes in the band. The one and only FUNK BROTHERS. Without them, none of this great music would have exsisted.
February 5th: Happy birthday Singer-songwriter Barrett Strong (80)...had Motown Records' first hit song, "Money" (That's What I Want)... with Norman Whitfield co-wrote this hit for The Temptations as well as "Just My Imagination" and songs for other Motown artists. Thank you and God bless. Thanks for the upload, mosogotam. Blessings. #keeprockin
Dennis, David, Eddie, Ali, Melvin, Paul, Richard, and Damon. Rest easy my brothers in song. Others will try to compare to the voice you all had, but, they cannot ever compare to the passion, the persistence, nor the heart, nor the soul of each of you. I miss you all so much. May God's angels look upon you and see that you are now at ease in Paradise.
Been a soundman for many moons. Putting together a new playlist for my neighborhood. Everyone is staying in the hood due to the virus curfew. I am firing up a dozen high powered amps and lots of huge JBL monsters. Gonna entertain them this weekend. I will have tunes from now back to the 60's and I am so glad I came across this beautiful version of Cloud Nine to kick off the show. All 240 homes will be able to hear the show and this baby will be the perfect one to break the air space.
“The music was intended to replicate or even enhance the mind-altering experiences of the psychedelic drugs. They were using electric guitars, wah-wah pedals, loop music to create ostinato patterns, electric organs, synthesizers (nobody even had any idea what that was at the time, but it was cool to throw it into a conversation), electro-mechanical polyphonic tape replay keyboards, fuzz box effects, backward tapes, you name it. Anything went” Karl Wiggins, Wrong Planet - Searching for your Tribe . . . . . Don't ask me, I just got here.... Will
With all the problems still affecting our people today, years ago when this song came out, you still have to come down from "CLOUD 9". Sadly, this expressive song is relevant today in this reality of our century!
Hi edagdwg thanks for sharing this sad story of what happens when you take drugs your life is never the same only God can take you off that trip a lot of our lives have been charged because of that bad meds and. People are still on that ☁️ linda j .peace
May 12: Happy birthday Songwriter-composer-music producer Norman Whitfield; Songwriters Hall of Fame, multiple Grammy Awards winner: Best R&B Song, Best Score-Soundtrack for Visual Media (1940-2008) Thank you and God bless. Thanks for the upload / mix mosogotam. RIP Norman Whitfield. Blessings
Hears to the bandleader , musician , singer , former contuor and temptation who help usher in the second classic era of this legendary group with this monster hit . RIP Dennis
Like I said before--for some reason Motown saved its most prolific and creative Music Mastery for The Temptations. Them Awesome snares and cymbal riffs🥁 Also those overdubbed voice calls Woo Woo Woo Woo Woo Woo Woo Woo
Its a world of love and harmony, youre a million miles from reality... you can be what you want to be, you aint got no responsibility.... Nobody writes like this anymore..... the greatest stuff ever!!
mosogotam You are the MAN when it comes to making great songs Even BETTER...Love Your Work got all yours recorded..Keep it up..There is no Super groups anymore...Glad I lived threw it in the 70...Thanks
This "here" makes me DANCE and at 60 and counting it takes me back!!!!! Way back-"mosogotam, you got this we are throwin' you at face book and twitter!!! Hard!
Man! This is so incredibly well done. Love me some congas. Totally IN LOVE with Norman Whitfield. And then your passion for this music. That's a trinity, right there. Love all your extended versions, but this one.... wow! Man! Thanks so much. Gonna play it in one of my sets really soon.
Wrapping up my Throwback Thursday playlist with this classic by The Temptations. "Cloud Nine." Thank you and God bless. A little hiccup won't end your career, but be careful not to let it choke you. Reflections. Thanks for the upload, mosogotam. Blessings
My older cousins all knew who Dennis Edwards was. No doubt David was to be missed. However..... new generation. ... new music...... David missed out.... AWESOME.. One of the greatest ever!! Changed how young black people looked .... heard .... music . The power of Motown... The specific message... Not Hendrix... Resonates today..... How about Handguns! How many people die daily! But who cares! It's just. .... Don't make ME.... decide to change this....
OK. You always do great work but this one is simply SUPREME!!! WOW. I was lucky enough to sit next to Dennis on a flight (First class too!) from Heathrow out to Dubai when I was on the road with the FLOS and James Brown topped the bill. The three acts did about 6 shows together and I have to say that DENNIS EDWARDS is the nicest, most approachable, funniest Temptation I ever met. We talked about him joining the group/TCB/Diana/Motown. He was very frank. I hope he writes HIS book soon.
The Temptations, bringing the funk, proving that they're not just about 'ballads'...."Cloud Nine" part of my 'Turn Up Tuesday' playlist. Thanks for the upload, mosogotam...you already know. Blessings
What's crazy is I have been hearing it all my life ans never realized that they where singing about Dope. Lol A person catching hell ans giving up. Taking some dope ans feeling fine. Lol
The Temptations. 'Nuff said....added this to my Monday Mixer: Funk Dat Noise! playlist. Thank you and God bless, Temps. Thanks for the upload, mosogotam. Blessings
The Temptations. Any questions. Showing their versatility with a funk-laden cut. Part of my 'Funk U Monday' playlist. Thanks for the upload, mosogotam. Continue to rock. Blessings

@@christopherclark2396 Thank you for tapping or typing to me.
T E M P T A T I O N S.......nothig else needs to be said
Is it even possible to elevate this Norman Whitfield / Barret Strong masterpiece even higher? You've done it, man! Wow!
You ain't got no responsibility! You can be who you want to be.
Norman Whitfield produced this and it helped change the Motown sound forever.

REMEMBERING Paul WILLIAM Sr RIP Paul a loyal fan it been forty years are so.
RIP Melvin Franklin and Eddie Kendricks.
Everyone is enamored with Jamerson but ignores the drummer. Blows the mind.
Funk brothers had so many talented men....hard to ignore any

How did that weekend go? I know it was lit(as the youngins say)!😄
@@cynthiaestell6466 Off the chart and begging me to do it again...
That bassline is crucial
You're talking about truly talented musicians.
funkadelic possibly wrote cloud nine I know they wrote psychedelic shack and gave it to whitfield
+Adam Smith We don't have those no more
chris edwards coudn't say it better!
Onr of Funk Bros trademarks is a signature bass line.

This "here" makes me DANCE and at 60 and counting it takes me back!!!!! Way back-"mosogotam, you got this we are throwin' you at face book and twitter!!! Hard!
I'm Doing Fine On Cloud 9 Now That's Da Shit Real Talk
Careful old timer don't break a hip dancing.
...in the slums of the city
Probably on of the main reasons I even play congas! Funk and Latin perfectly distilled!
Man! This is so incredibly well done. Love me some congas. Totally IN LOVE with Norman Whitfield. And then your passion for this music. That's a trinity, right there. Love all your extended versions, but this one.... wow! Man! Thanks so much. Gonna play it in one of my sets really soon.
Eddie Bongo Brown is hitting those congos. May he, the man who remixed this masterpiece and all of Temptations RIP.

I can't/won't classify which one of your "works" is the best.
This one is on the short list.
Well done.
+Bamaboompa ...Thanks so much, Bama!!!!!
Likewise here. Best 'Cloud' I'vs heard. I hear my boy Stacey Edwards on Congas real well for the first time. You shoulda done 'Runaway Child' too.
@@mosogotam This is very cool. It still blows me away how people can totally deconstruct/reconstruct a song like this.
OK. You always do great work but this one is simply SUPREME!!! WOW.
