Legendary quintet micro-managed - and rightly so - by its surviving original member, Otis Williams, seen herein on the Arsenio Hall Show in '92 when the lineup was Melvin 'Blue' Franklin, bass, Otis Williams, baritone, Ali-Ollie Woodson, tenor-falsetto lead voice, Richard Street, tenor, and Ron Tyson, falsetto lead vocals. Today only Otis and Ron are still around from this lineup and still singing together. Blue Franklin was 52 when he died in 1995 from congestive heart failure complicated by diabetes, Ali-Ollie Woodson was 59 when he died from leukemia in 2010, and Richard Street dead at 70 in 2013 from pulmonary embolism. Such tragedy for such multi-talented performers. I saw the Temptations live from the very beginnings of their career when they were billed near the bottom of the weekly lineup at the Apollo Theater in the very early 1960's when Al Bryant was lead vocalist before David Ruffin came in 2 years later.

I can’t believe I only saw them a year ago with the four Tops and it was brilliant. I know most of the guys the originals were not there, but the guys who were there had been there for years and years. They were with the four Tops, and it was the best best concert in my life. I’m 67 years old and I grew up with them and I will treasure that concert and love everyone of them and nothing else will ever compare. I feel honored that I was able to see them close up after listening to them for years and years and years. Thank you so much. There will never be groups like them ever again. God bless Motown and every group that ever came from them.

He pretty much the founder of the group. All the credit always goes to Otis Williams and he was just a background singer..he didn't have a distinctive voice that set him apart from the rest. Melvin, Eddie, Paul and David all had their own style. Bass..Falsetto, Baritone..Otis was just..there in the background. He got wayyy too much credit. The other 4 should get the credit.

Give us a break. Anytime Richard sang any song it was a stellar performance. Ali Woodson was just a cheap replacement for Dennis Edwards. Dennis Edwards believed in sharing the stage with his fellow performers which he viewed as family not stealing every song he could get but the song stealing had to be approved by Otis.
