Classic Five holds a Special Place in my heart..but That RON TYSON, RICHARD STREET, GLENN LEONARD, DENNIS, ALI-OLLIE, OLLIE, OLLIE...RAN with it..not just carried the weight of that Legendary Baton. TEMPTATIONS❤FOREVER

[@KarenPrice-g4u]

Absolutely!

[@jeannetteramsey8347]

I so agree. My favorite group of all times

[@trainstar5]

It amazes me to see Melvin dancing so much even with the arthritis pain he had. Temptations Forever!!!

[@brendathompson2378]

Melvin obviously enjoyed his calling😊

[@essiejames9492]

It still amazing that people seem to have forgotten about Damon Harris who replace Eddie Kendrick the man had a very beautiful falsetto we need to give him the credit due him ppl loo òòòòòl

[@kathyhayden2499]

Yes love Damon Harris too❤

[@darnelljones3765]

Yes, Damon's work was one of the real blessings for The Temptations! And his voice was extremely adequate as a replacement for the great Eddie Kendrick's parts! Peace, Family, and Temptations Forever!

[@ronjenkins2738]

Think Ricky Owen replaced Eddie. Damon replaced Ricky.

Dennis has a voice like a Preacher. Loud and aggressive, but wonderful to listen too. Plus he was Tall and Handsome.

Ball of Confusion fits this world today

[@johnanderson6116]

I love David Ruffin, Him Ollie and Levi are my favorite singer but that Dennis Edward's was a hell of a front man, especially live!

[@skepchica]

He definitely stepped up, and those were some mighty big shoes to fill. I love the fact there was no animosity, just respect between the two of them. Ruffin was probably my favorite, but Dennis was church, honey!

Hardest Working World-Class Supersonic Morning Performers. Dennis Edwards did not deserve to be mistreated and isolated from his children at the end of his life. So unfair but GOD has welcomed each of them home where they can now take their well deserved rest. Faithful to their craft and their fans to the end. 💕💕💕💕💕

[@johnanderson6116]

Charges need to be brought up against his wife. If she is guilty of any wrong doing. Isolating him from his children sounds a little bit shady.

[@colinturner4158]

Didn’t know Dennis edwards children treated him in such a appalling way
