The Temptations -- "It's Summer" and "The Exception To The Rule"

Summer is here with all the brutal heat and depressing mugginess characteristic for the season in Texas. I can't find the "magic in the air" the Tempts are singing about, can't feel "that soft summer breeze" ... But I do love the song.

So here we go with the memorable bass voice of Melvin Franklin on "It's Summer." The track is from their 1970 album Psychedelic Shack.

There's no other reason for posting "The Exception To The Rule" than my loving it.  Enjoy! (From Sky Is The Limit,  Gordy, 1971)
