Last Christmas, I received a record player as a gift, which is now a fun — and costly — new hobby. My parents live by Beverly Records, where my first purchase was a Christmas album by The Temptations. I told myself not to play it until this holiday season.
I excitedly placed the needle on the record to hear my favorite “Silent Night” rendition recently. But I didn’t hear Dennis Edwards belt out the remixed lyrics “in my mind.” I looked at the green album cover and realized this was a 1970 Temptations album and I wanted the 1980 version.
