The Temptations - Papa Fue Un Rolling Stone Papa Was A Rolling Stone
Review by Ivan Famesa
"Papa Fue Un Rolling Stone" or "Papa Was A Rolling Stone" is an iconic album by the legendary Motown group, The Temptations. Released in 1972, the album features some of the group's most memorable hits, including the title track, "Hey Girl (I Like Your Style)," and "Law of the Land."
The album's standout track, "Papa Was A Rolling Stone," is a haunting, soulful ballad that tells the story of a young man trying to understand his father's life and legacy. The song's powerful vocals and intricate instrumentation make it one of the most beloved songs in Motown history.
Throughout the album, The Temptations showcase their trademark harmonies and expertly blend elements of soul, funk, and R&B. The result is a collection of songs that are both catchy and deeply moving.
