'My Girl' was their anthem, so that is my first, next is 'Since I lost my baby' and 'Just my imagination'

Too many to choose from, but I managed to pick one, "Can't Get Next To You", followed by "I'm Losing You" and "Ball Of Confusion" :)

I'm not a big fan of The Temps (I prefer the Philly Soul Sound) but I do like from the list given 1971's "Just My Imagination" and one not listed from 1984 called "Treat Her Like A Lady".
(And also that great '70s solo song "Walk Away From Love" from David Ruffin)
:)

All of the above, served with loads of tomato ketchup...!!
The stand-out track is the painfully beautiful 'Just My Imagination', although 'Get Ready' is worth a mention (better than Rare Earth's version, IMHO...)
Sadly, only one member from the 'golden' line-up (Otis Williams) survives, but they've left such an outstanding recorded legacy...

Yes, that is a good song!
It is sad that Otis Williams is the only one left, and I agree, they did leave behind a great musical legacy indeed.

'sending you red roses and violets....roses mean I love you...violets mean I'll always be true girl..." funny don't remember the name of it.....haven't listened to them in so-o-o-o long.....and they were my Tops, but, then again, Stevie & Smokey...synchronized soul....motown/philly.....those were the days, my friend....

'Get Ready' is still a fav and if I never heard "My Girl" again, it would be too soon...so over played!

Get Ready is great! But My Girl..that's their anthem! I never get tired of that one.
