The second edition was held from January 18-27, 1991 at the Maracanã stadium. Headliners were Guns N' Roses, Prince and George Michael, each being top billed for two of the event's nine nights. George Michael's second concert, on January 27, the festival's closing day, featured his ex-Wham! par
tner Andrew Ridgeley, who joined Michael for a few songs at the encore. ♫ Papa Was a Rollin' Stone ♫ "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" is a soul song, written by Motown songwriters Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong as a single for Motown act The Undisputed Truth in 1971. This version of "Papa" was
released as a single in early 1972, and peaked at number sixty-three on the pop charts and number twenty-four on the R &B charts.
Later in 1972, Whitfield, who also produced the song, took "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" and remade it as a twelve-minute record for The Temptations, which was a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and won three Grammy Awards in 1973. While the original Undisputed Truth version of the song has be
en largely forgotten, The Temptations' version of the song has been an enduring and influential soul classic. It was ranked #168 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, one of the group's three songs on the list. In retrospect, Otis Williams considers "Papa" to be the last rea
l classic and hit for the group. Release and awards A seven-minute edited version of "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" was released as a single in September 1972; its b-side was Whitfield's instrumental without the Temptations' vocals. "Papa" rose to number one on the U.S. pop charts and number five on th
e U.S. R &B charts, becoming the Temptations' final pop number-one hit. The song, the anchor of the 1972 Temptations album All Directions, won three 1973 Grammys: its a-side won for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Group, and its b-side won for Best R&B Instrumental (awarded to Whitfield and arranger/conductor Paul Riser), and Whitfield and Barret Strong won for Best R&B Song as the song's composers.
A few notable covers of "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" have been recorded, including a 1993 version by George Michael, released on the EP Five Live. Also "Papa Was a Rollin Stone" has been mixed with Coldplay's "Clocks" to make "Papa was a Clock". Cover hierarchy: ●Papa Was a Rolling Stone by The
Temptations (August 1972) ●Papa Was a Rolling Stone by David Lindley & El Rayo-X (1988)
●Papa Was a Rolling Stone by George Michael and Queen (1993) ●Papa Was a Rolling Stone by The Lovemongers (1993) ●Papa Was a Rolling Stone by 4 the Cause (August 25, 1998) ●Där Papa isch äs Chorbi gsi by Sina (January 29, 1999)
