Memories! My friend girl dated Dennis years ago and through her I met the "Tall Tantalizing Temptations". That's what they were called.They invited me and her to Atlantic City to a supper club one weekend ,as they were popular then, front row center and sent us champayne and I got strangled, too bubbly, lol Dennis always called me 'his little sister' and bought me a pair of gold earrings which I still have to this day. I'll never forget those times and they were fun and perfect gentlemen. All of the originals are gone now, except for Otis. This video made me teary. Thank you.

I think the right decision was made not renaming the group David Ruffin & the Temptations. Not taking anything away from David, he was an extremely talented dude. But the Temptations were a group of very good voices. True David's talent was what was missing, but he joined a group that had outstanding vocal harmony and supporting vocals from Eddie, Paul and Melvin. They all made each other better. The proof being David's solo career, not the same without them.

You are spot on everything. Incredible job. I'm 72 and I was a professional drummer touring with many different artists through the 70's. In 1972 I had the honor of backing up the temptations at the jazz festival in Cincinnati. Mel Brown was their regular drummer why he had to fly home escapes me. Eddie and Paul were gone by then. They were God given sweethearts to work with. I became a temptations freak after that I've got a collection of temptations stuff I've been collecting for 50 years . Also your narrative skills are fantastic , you put your listeners at ease. Great job.

Profile in Pittsburgh Allegheny County PA this was such an informative video about The Temptations. I was blessed to meet Otis Williams and the group in 2018 at Heinz Hall, downtown Pittsburgh PA. I'm so thankful to listen to The Four Tops and The Temptations that I became their fan forever. No one knows what makes a group famous. I believe Heavenly Father wanted the Temptations to give a performance that is still strong today. You're singing dancing and just speaking to the audience make for a successful night of entertainment. Thank you very much for sharing this video with us fans. Motown will always be opening the door for young people to make their Mark in life on stage. Sister Noir Rose Parker

As I'm older and wiser now I realize changes take place. Regardless you captured a lot of history here. This is part of the sound track of my life. Keep bringing it. I'm even picking up on people I never heard of, but I heard the songs by them. I've often said that Rock and Roll should be a college course today. You are proving that it would be interesting. This is part of our culture.

I worked at this building in the late 1980's cleaning offices in the evenings, so I worked with this young lady for a few months. She did one part of the huge building and I did the other part, so one night we were just talking about life and a lot of things and don't remember how we got on this subject, but we started talking about the temptations for some reason, and she told me that Dennis Edwards was her father!! And Dennis was always my favorite singer in the group, so I was shocked!!!! I said to her for real?? He's your father girl?? She said yes...I'll show you my birth certificate tomorrow....I said ok. And when I took a look at her, she really did resemble him a lot. She brought it and yes it stated that he's the father😅. I never forgot that night, she told me a lot that night about her life with him. Yes, I'll always remember her working with me. She was very nice and funny as well.😂

The temptations was is and always be the greatest group ever. In every combination of the temptations was top shelf . I feel that Richard Street is one of the best vocalist ever, even though he didn't get that recognition, he was outstanding. They all were. There probably would be no baby boomers without the temps.
