Released on the Gordy (Motown) label, and produced by Norman Whitfield, it features on the group's 1971 album, Sky's the Limit. When released as a single, %22Just My Imagination%22 became the third Temptations song to reach number one on the US Billboard Hot 100. The single held the number one position on the Billboard Pop Singles Chart for two weeks in 1971, from March 27 to April 10. %22Just My Imagination%22 also held the number-one spot on the Billboard R&B Singles chart for three weeks, from February 27 to March 20 of that year.Today, %22Just My Imagination%22 is considered one of the Temptations' signature songs, and is notable for recalling the sound of the group's 1960s recordings. It is also the final Temptations single to feature founding members Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams. During the process of recording and releasing the single, Kendricks left the group to begin a solo career, while the ailing Williams was forced to retire from the act for health reasons. In 2004, Rolling Stone magazine listed %22Just My Imagination%22 as number 389 on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
