The Temptations ft Smokey Robinson – Is It Gonna Be Yes Or No

The Temptations celebrate 60 years of soul with a brand new recording, Is It Gonna Be Yes Or No, featuring their old producer and Motown labelmate Smokey Robinson.

We gotta admit, we didn’t see this coming! A new song from The Temptations. Sadly the only member of the original quartet is Otis Williams while the others (Paul Williams, David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks, Melvin Franklin) have passed on.

The group has gone through a dizzying amount of personnel changes since the late 1960s but Otis Williams has been there since day one.

So, here is something new from The Temptations and here is the record company blurb:

This year marks the 60^th Anniversary celebration of The Temptations, the legendary, Grammy® Award-Winning group known as the “No. 1 R&B Artists of All Time” (Billboard). And releasing on Sep 24^th is their brand-new single, “Is It Gonna Be Yes Or No,” a duet between the group and the equally legendary Smokey Robinson, the man who delivered their first hits. The song, also written and produced by Smokey, is a preview of the upcoming TEMPTATIONS 60 album.

As a bonus, here’s a 13th Floor favourite that The Temptations and Smokey Robinson cooked up in 1965:
