Aged 74 and English I seen the Temps many times.Along with the 4 Tops their voices are awesome.True singing unfortunately todays generation have missed out but these groups will never ever be forgotten.
Temptations music moved your soul, know the words from listening so much I've got sunshine on a cloudy day when it's cold outside I've got the month of May. Keep on loving my friend
I was born in 1951.My mother loved all kinds of music.And we used to listen to All of It when I was Young and growing up and they are absolutely fabulous.All kinds of musicians never did lack opera though but i'm all in for all the great bands and all the people that contributed to all the music that we now can enjoy today
What a group!! I was lucky enough to be a teenager in the &0s. Real music,motow,ska,two tone and soul .I'm a white guy but black music always touched my soul. God bless❤
There will never be another one like this again they were and will always be the best I’m a southern born woman in 1951 I grew up listening to the best music ever made and so many wonderful people came out of Detroit there are no need for words just listen to all the music and the best music people have gone on lord knows I miss them so just think of what they are calling music now no way no how baby
To all those dissing this lineup, as you age....go sit yourself down and rock until you take your last breath. That's what you insist these great men do. I am grateful they kept the music going, entertaining me into my later years. They sounded wonderful. It was their time. Live your memories but no need to put down anybody. Nothing, not even you, stays the same. No one is bigger than the group!!!
That's cool and all but Ron Tyson hands down sucks bro how do you mess up Masterpiece I mean even I'm not a big fan of Glenn but I think hes even better than Ron
Thank you for that!! How could anyone talk about these men, who have been putting out great music for years?? No life I guess. All this non-music that's out today can't compare!!
PREACH! All 27 Temptations made the group, and I’m glad Otis and Ron are still going strong. Just like you,I’ll defend this group forever. Temptations forever and ever! All 27 of them from Otis Williams to Jawan M.Jackson!
That whole era of motown had so much talent it is amazing. Berry Gordy was a genius business,talent scout. And Smokey such a great writer. I was not even born at that time and I don't believe there will ever be such talent as motown in the 60s.
I agree that the Temptations and The Four Tops were very classy. Oh, what great entertainers!!!. I lived through this era. No one can match the music of the 50' s and 60' s.
If this world were mine I WOULD BRING THEM ALL BACK!!! Just Love, Love, Love the TEMPS. My kids had the privilege to enjoy this music when they were growing up. REAL MUSIC - RAW TALENT. The voices, the music, the moves.
If This World 🌎 Were mine, I Too, Would Bring Back The Temptations, and The ❤️ Heartfelt Songs They Gave Us. We Can't Thank These Groups Enough For Being Such A Hugh Part of Our lives. And Still Today are There in Our ❤️ Hearts. I Love These Guys. ❤️
I envy you greatly sir! As a 21 year old, I can get incredibly sad knowing that Otis is the only original Temp still standing and that I will probably never see the current Temps performing live. Especially during these harsh times. I must've watched this concert about 20 times now, and it never gets boring.
May the Temptations always be remembered and held up as the number one group of entertainers of the world. We who have lived during this period in time who were privleged to or blessed to witness their greatness either in person or through their recordings must acknowledge that all especially the original members were some of the greatest song stylests in every vocal range that they would use. Blessings to all of them Paul, Eddie, Melvin, David, Dennis, Richard, Ali, and a special Thanks to Mr Otis Williams for putting and keeping them in our hearts and minds forever Temptations. Thanks and forgive me for the names I forgot to mention.
Mr. Vanderhorst : I can b a witness i was a young girl when the groups was formed. Danced a many dances on their music NO OTHER GROUP COMPETE W/THEM. They laid out the BLUE PRINT for all who came AFTER. 😃😃💗🎵🎵🎼🎼🎤🎤🎶🎺🎤
They still tour, albeit with only one original member. I'm going to see them this March because it's the only chance I'll ever have to glimpse even a fraction of this great band in action.
@@razzledcroaker3678 I actually got to see them in concert last year after I had written my initial response. Yes, there is one original member who I believe is 84 and still amazing. They really put on a great show. You'll have fun! I cover "To Proud to Beg." My own upcoming single "Integration Education" to be release early next year is a tribute to the soul groups of the '60s. Most of my songs are more acoustic, though.
I need to rewrite my earlier comment what I was trying to say is : The Precision , The Timing , The Sync , The Steps , The Professionalism was still there & displayed with the help by none other than Mr Otis Williams proved that The Temptations were The Best Group on. The Planet !!! Rock on Temptations , Rock on Brothers !!
Don't know where you live, but I grew up across the border from Detroit . These songs were the soundtrack of our lives as well. I can remember music playing everywhere during the summer - pouring out of the shops, cars, and homes, people dancing in the streets, what a time it was we were so lucky. Thanks Detroit, for giving the world some of the best music that ever was!!!!!
One of my favorite groups, their music will never get old or boring my heart goes out to such amazing entertainers with amazing voices especially Mr Ruffin
Not only can they sing but they can dance They are true lperformers. And they are fit. I can only imagine how much work it takes to do what you do. My hat is off to you..
I'd rather listen to Dennis with laryngitis on the crappiest PA ever than most of the so-called 'talent' today,how standards have fallen but I have to say that the Temps and their ilk set the bar incredibly high !!
Unfortunately, he is only a backing singer. All the talent ( David, Eddie and Paul) passed away through abuse of one drug or other ( Crack, alcohol or tobacco).
Every TEMPTATION brought their unique talent to the group😍. So happy they're building on the Legacy. Dr. Otis Williams doing what he does. Keeping it going and Growing. I think our KINGS smile from Heaven❤Temptations❤Forever..watching in 2024!
This Temptations lineup was awesomely talented, i.e., Otis Williams, Dennis Edwards, Ron Tyson, and the late Melvin Franklin and Richard Street. Give some props to Otis Williams for having survived all the up's and down's of maintaining the stellar reputation of The Temptations all these decades since their genesis as The Distants/Primes and Elgins. You may not love Otis for some of the things he had to do to keep the Temptations at the top of their game, but he gets my respect & admiration to the max!
Thanks for your great comment Daniel - you sound like a big fan and appreciate The Temptations talent! Please feel free to subscribe to the channel to enjoy more of our great music :)
i agree, if it wasnt for otis' strong hand on the group, it wouldnt have been what it became. he really kept the group going, even to this day. he also gets my respect and admiration to the max too!
Christina Robinson OTIS HAD TO DEAL WITH DIFFERENT EGOS ALL THE TIME. AND STILL MANAGED TO KEEP THE GROUP INTACT. DESPITE THE CONSTANT PERSONEL CHANGES. AND ALL THE UPS AND DOWNS GREAT VIDEO
They open the door to greatness in R&B music. A group gave us so much in real music that reach the heart of the matter. In love music, just a jam and made us all dance to the groove of the Temptations. A SURE WINNER IN MUSIC ONE OF THE BEST. A TRUE CLASS ACT OF GREAT ENTERTAINMENT.
How about those"Temptations"? How about them, aren't they just wonderful? My NUMBER"1"VOCAL GROUP"of ALL TIMES!!!! DID any of you guys knew that in 1969, The TEMPTING TEMPTATIONS WERE THE"WORLD'S BEST RECORDING GROUP IN THE, WORLD"!!! MOVED OUT THE"BEATLES"!!! HOW ABOUT THAT! IF YOU EVER LISTEN TO"BALL of CONFUSION" THE BEATLES NEW RECORD IS A GAS!"LET IT BE"!!! WHAT A SONG &HEY JUDE! YES, THE TEMPTS JUST KICKED THE BEATLES OUT OF THE#1BEST RECORDING GROUP IN THE WORLD!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Growing up in Detroit back then was music paradise. Every single week another group was throwing out hit after hit, and it became expected and adored. Every generation gets theirs, music constantly evolves, but I honestly believe this love was the very best.
There have been over 26 of the Temptatjons at last count. They keep that sound alive. I saw them in around 1973 or 74 and had back stage pass to meet each one. Got autographs and remember them as very friendly and large warm hands. Ha. This is a great sounding group with fantastic moves. Even Lloyd G William's who sang and recorded the songs in Animal House ( Shamma Lamma Ding Dong. And Shout etc) it was his voice singing not fictitious Otis Knight who lip synced and Loyds great voice dubbed in. And yes, Lloyd G William's got cheated out of record royalties and credits. Bad deal!! Another trivia...Paul Williams and Eddie Kenfrick went to grade school together in Alabama. Got into a Tiff and Paul dumped a bucket of mop water over Eddie's head. They became friends but moved to other states. Kendri KS notified Paul Willia.s that Otis had 2 openings in music group so they joined tovether.......🎶⭐🎶
@@ronaldballard5098I do understand the reasoning behind it all. Just saying, to me, his voice was the best...I could be wrong, I think the movie..The Five Heartbeats, was loosely based on the Temps early days
Melvin was an acquaintance/friend, he and his wife often came to my husband's show. Know, he was every ounce a real person and a truly good man. Some people should live much longer. A classy gentleman.

JaySinger That was cruel but whatever you say Just so you know it’s not good to not Care about something you said that sounded stupid but have a lovely day
JaySinger That makes no sense but OK and nobody called you stupid or dumb I said what you said was dumb know the difference😊. And no it doesn’t but whatever
I grew up knowing when The Elgins first started 1960 BKA The Temptations still watching and listen in 2019 no other has come close to the performance of these talent men. Thanks onemediamusic for sharing
Temptations is one of the best groups ever come out of Motown I can see them singing but I can also love them stepping yes they give a great show I think they would number one group out of Motown to me
Old Man River shows off their awesome accapella harmonies. Most of the tunes in this concert take me right back to 1970-71. I was a an east coast guy hitting the west coast for the first time, thanks to uncle sam. lol Temptations on the radio, cold coors in hand, and cruising pacific coast highway 1. Who needs a time machine, when we have music like this to take us there.....thanx for the post and memories.
All of Motown music is fantastic they are all the greatest mucus artists of all time Tank u Barry Gordy for making such great music with Soo manygreatmusians
Temptation were one of my mentors, I know every song they recorded and Lou Rawls recommended that I audition for them when David Ruffin left. One of the Best Vocal Groups Of All Time In My Time.
Wow!!!!! What an incredible experience!!!! I was 16 when they skyrocketed to stardom. I remember every song 🎵 and every lyric. Pop music today cannot compare.
I was in high school in Detroit (dePorres is in the house) when Dennis Edwards joined the Temps. None of us were excited about this and we didn't think anyone could replace David Ruffin. Little did we know. Dennis brought the church with him and we all fell in love with his singing. Love this. Thanks for posting.
Otis Williams you are glue that held the genius fabric assembling together the greatest show the world has ever experienced. When the Temps needed a voice to speak to the human heart you stepped to the microphone and laid the rap down. I hope these words have been a blessing.
I grew up with the Temptations and I ‘m loving it ❤I am so grateful to have pictures with one of my favorite American singers. The Mighty Temptations’ music 🎶 will live forever and forever more. You already know❤
Grew-up 45 minutes from MOTOWN. In 60s-70s.many epic groups. Smokey, Diane and Supremes other greats including TEMPTATIONS. Thanks to all for great music, fun, and spirit. This was a postive influence for this white boy.
This is the era of music I love the most. Performances were lifetime memorable. A concert made you feel like the world's troubles did not matter. Subsequently, in addition, these guys and others...their music is responsible for a lot of babies back then. Haha.
I'M 87 YEARS OLD AND STILL LOVE THE TEMPS!!!
Aged 74 and English I seen the Temps many times.Along with the 4 Tops their voices are awesome.True singing unfortunately todays generation have missed out but these groups will never ever be forgotten.
I am eighty-three years old and I had the privilege of seeing the Tentations with Eddy Kendricks and JIMMY Ruffin live, unrepeatable.
How lucky I am at 74 listening to the music of my youth. Dancing and singing along. Thank you. Loved it then. Love it now.
Happy for you

The Temptations has always been my idle since I was a teen. Their music is so priceless to the World.

Can never come back. Sixties and seventies could never be duplicated, ever. That's why new groups have to incorporate this music. Motown!
They are the best group of all times. They will never be duplicated, because they are the best that came through Motown's, bar none!!!
Their endurance is crazy to be able to move and sing in sync for that long and not look winded #respect💯
New Edition does the same. These men ( Temptations) are teenagers, but can move.

JaySinger That was cruel but whatever you say Just so you know it’s not good to not Care about something you said that sounded stupid but have a lovely day
JaySinger That makes no sense but OK and nobody called you stupid or dumb I said what you said was dumb know the difference😊. And no it doesn’t but whatever
this group was simple phenomenal. This is the first time I seen them live in concert. These singers of today can't even come close to these legends
The closest thing we have to that group is new edition................... The temptations were smooooooooth!!!!!!!!!!!!

I grew up knowing when The Elgins first started 1960 BKA The Temptations still watching and listen in 2019 no other has come close to the performance of these talent men. Thanks onemediamusic for sharing
My Favorite group of All Times.
I have watched the TEMPTATION MOVIE EVERY DAY ALL DAY I KNOW FOR ABOUT A MONTH
Out of sight!!!!
The Ultimate Showmen and probably the greatest group to ever hit the stage!!!! Mesmerising!!!!!
Temptations is one of the best groups ever come out of Motown I can see them singing but I can also love them stepping yes they give a great show I think they would number one group out of Motown to me
The temptations have always been my number 1 group since I ways young and now I'm 71; temptations to the end
60 min of pure and enjoyable entertainment. I miss the old Motown groups, especially the Temps.
Old Man River shows off their awesome accapella harmonies. Most of the tunes in this concert take me right back to 1970-71. I was a an east coast guy hitting the west coast for the first time, thanks to uncle sam. lol Temptations on the radio, cold coors in hand, and cruising pacific coast highway 1. Who needs a time machine, when we have music like this to take us there.....thanx for the post and memories.
RIP to my Dad Richard Street I miss him so! Thanks for posting!
1 of the all time greats and 1 of my all time favorites
All of Motown music is fantastic they are all the greatest mucus artists of all time Tank u Barry Gordy for making such great music with Soo manygreatmusians

I was in love with your father...
Great entertainer.
❤❤❤
Yes welcome to true story, in mus😅 history the voices.
Temptation were one of my mentors, I know every song they recorded and Lou Rawls recommended that I audition for them when David Ruffin left. One of the Best Vocal Groups Of All Time In My Time.
Wow!!!!! What an incredible experience!!!! I was 16 when they skyrocketed to stardom. I remember every song 🎵 and every lyric. Pop music today cannot compare.
Why didn't audition?
Did you audition? I mean Lou Rawls,he is a brilliant singer,and he recommended you so you be good.
I was in high school in Detroit (dePorres is in the house) when Dennis Edwards joined the Temps. None of us were excited about this and we didn't think anyone could replace David Ruffin. Little did we know. Dennis brought the church with him and we all fell in love with his singing. Love this. Thanks for posting.
Otis Williams you are glue that held the genius fabric assembling together the greatest show the world has ever experienced. When the Temps needed a voice to speak to the human heart you stepped to the microphone and laid the rap down. I hope these words have been a blessing.
One of the greatest groups all time hands down witness greatness after this performance I'm a believer please upload more Temptations 👏👏👍👍💯
I'm very happy that "Otis" kept the Temptation together after death of the other tempts. Been a true fan since day one!

I can see Paul jamming right along with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing! Watching their patented moves. He was so graceful and light on his feet!
Yes he did
THE TEMPTATIONS ARE EXTRAORDINARY LEGIONS TO ALL THE WORLD!!!
I grew up with the Temptations and I ‘m loving it ❤I am so grateful to have pictures with one of my favorite American singers. The Mighty Temptations’ music 🎶 will live forever and forever more. You already know❤
Grew-up 45 minutes from MOTOWN. In 60s-70s.many epic groups. Smokey, Diane and Supremes other greats including TEMPTATIONS. Thanks to all for great music, fun, and spirit. This was a postive influence for this white boy.
This is the era of music I love the most. Performances were lifetime memorable. A concert made you feel like the world's troubles did not matter. Subsequently, in addition, these guys and others...their music is responsible for a lot of babies back then. Haha.
I think so!!!
One of the best bands ever! Thanks!
Love Richard Street. He's so good looking and awesome singer
One or the greatest group of all in 60s and 70s and early 80.
I totally agree
THE GOATS....
Thanks gentlemen
The Greatest of all times
Luv them and still do old school from the 60s all of motown 4ever
Best music ever
I love their energy!!! Their hits are off the charts.
That dance routine was out of sight the Temptations had it together the guys were great💖💖DP
I love melvins voice.. Such a good bass in that voice!
TheDanishBully So do I ! Love his smile too,sad to know they are no longer here to make their magic !
