@Spartacus45 Год назад

As an ex British Army veteran I was interested how many military graves were in that cemetery. I've only ever been to Arlington once whilst visiting the U.S. back in 2002 and I was lost for words. I research WW1 graves in the U.K. and was wondering if those graves were a mixture of WW1,WW2 and other conflicts? It was quite amazing to see them all looking so clean and tended as the M.O.D. here in the U.K. seem to forget alot of the military graves. Sleep well brothers, see you all in that giant mess hall in the sky!! 🙏 🇺🇸 🇬🇧

I clicked on this one INSTANTLY! I love me some Dennis Edwards! He was a BEAST on that 🎤. I’m sure it woulda been hard for anyone to fill David Ruffin’s shoes but Dennis held his own!!! The best replacement was him. Don’t Look Any Further is STILL my mf’n song! My wife & I sing it to each other, duet style lol. It birthed one of the illest diss songs too. What a loss. So sad how his wife did him. They coulda gave this legend a better grave too. BFFR! RIP Dennis Edwards 🕊️🖤✨

@PJ-777 Год назад

In many ways, Paul Williams was the Temptations' unsung hero. He and Eddie Kendricks were their original lead singers, but when the Motown group broke worldwide and became soul heroes with “My Girl” in 1964, it was David Ruffin's voice that rang out.

@debraharshaw6154 Год назад

But Otis Williams started the whole group

@jaylene.turner6524 Год назад

Not true. The group had their first R&B hit with “Dream Come True” in 1962 with Eddie Kendricks singing lead, and Elbridge Bryant,Otis Williams, Paul Williams,and Melvin Franklin singing background. It peaked at #22 on the R&B chart. Even when David came in and replaced Elbridge, he was still in the background while Eddie sang on the first four hits they had in a row: “The Way You Do The Things You Do”, “I’ll Be In Trouble”, “The Girl’s Alright With Me”, and “Girl,(Why You Wanna Make Me Blue)”.

💐🙋🏾‍♀️💐Fate threw my best friend and me an enormous favor to see Dennis Edwards rehearsing with his Temptations Review more than 8 tears before he died. He was actually rehearsing for a debutante's private birthday party. We both remarked that he was on point rehearsing "Papa Was a Rolling Stone." We looked at him and then at each other to verify that we were seeing and hearing Dennis Edwards! To this day, we remember Mr. Edwards' voice sounded precisely like it came from the vinyl LP recorded decades before.🏆🎉❤🎉
