Sickle Cell, Alcoholism, Drugs, Cigarettes, infidelity are all diseases. Each one cost a great price. Let's not be cruel in our remarks to each other. No one is perfect.

I love that Melvin ventured into the Baritone range for Matchmaker. A TRUE Bass/Baritone!!!!!!! #AWESOME
@renaissanceman1654 жыл бұрын
Actually Melvin was a basso profundo, the lowest bass range. He is still expected to go up and reach a C4, which is middle C. A bass-baritone is a higher bass singer, like Larry Graham. It has a lighter, more flexible quality to it. :The desired high note is F4 above middle C on the piano. I happen to be a bass-baritone aka basso cantante myself. I can sing below C2 which is low C on the piano, but I can also sing up into the tenor range, B flat 4, and C5, the tenor high C. Check it Out! Ciao!!!

Nice comments and great observations! I think you are spot on in your analysis. Eddie and Phillip had voices that were "out of this world" like from another planet. And while I'm not saying these two were just as good, I'm still inclined to include William Hart of the Delfonics and definitely Ted Mills of Blue Magic somewhere in between Eddie and Phillip Bailey? Again, neither can outdo Eddie or Phillip; but, Ted Mills' voice was also rather high and silky before it started diminishing in the 90's.

Paul Williams suffered from Sickle Cell Anemia, which is a very painful. He needed oxygen after every performance. Before people start judging educate yourself. During Paul tenure with the Temptation medical options for people with Sickle cell Anemia was very limited.
@renaissanceman1657 жыл бұрын
Preach, Sister! Paul wasn't messing up the choreography. Don't equate everything you've read about him, or seen in the movie, and assume, you're going to see some indication of that in later performances. There's a big difference between a short medley of songs, and a full concert tour performance. As far as his being in low lighting here, that would be plausible if not for the fact that the lighting was turned up for the majority of the performance. Why turn it down in the middle of the song? Stop rehashing the drunk scene from the movie. Those incidents reported were during some concert dates. Also, I'm sure Paul had enough presence of mind to at least be functional during a national television broadcast. He loved performing, and while suffering from sickle cell anemia, was often in a lot of physical pain in his feet and joints, which may have slowed his precision at times, not to mention the havoc it was wreaking on his lungs. It's a miracle he was able to perform as long as he did. He was still smooth, though.

@renaissanceman1654 жыл бұрын
While the drinking didn't help, the sickle cell anemia was wreaking havoc on his lungs, his joints, and other organs. Paul was quoted as saying that his feet would often hurt. When a person suffers recurring sickle cell crises the pain is excruciating, often requiring a blood transfusion, because the elingated cells collect in the joints, and organs. Years ago the life expectancy of someone with the disease was 30 years old. My close friend has had it since birth. He is now 54. Thank God for medical advancements.

It helps that the Motown groups didn't also play instruments so they could focus on such a stimulating visual presentation through dance to accompany their incredible vocals. Motown was really next level and defined entertainment during that era.

Paul was a professional. Though it was known years before the movie came out, the movie seemed to shed light on it for a new generation of fans. However, Paul was not falling down drunk, like some would like to believe. The movie exagerated several details, and failed to depict Paul's more serious health problem, which led to his leaving the Temptations, which was sickle cell anemia. It is a fact not known to all. Melvin Franklin also mentioned it in an interview years ago. I've explained it many times, but if you care to hear. I will elaborate. Even the facts surrounding Paul's death indicated signs of foul play, despite how the movie portrayed it. Check it Out! Ciao!!!

@MsLady328 Eddie's brother only stayed over that one night. He slept in the room that was formerly by brother's room. (My brother was no longer living with us because he was married.) I definitely remember the next morning when he went in to our bathroom to get ready to get dressed. I remember that either my Mother or one of my sisters gave him a towel to use. After that, I remember him sitting in our dining room, sipping coffee. I believe my Mother had prepared him a small breakfast. But very shortly after that, he had to leave because Eddie kept calling and saying---they had "to go". I suppose this was maybe because The Temps had to get back on the road. I remember when he ultimately went outside to leave. I know at least one of my sisters, if not all of them, escorted him out. I didn't see much of what happened when they were outside. But, I think Eddie came to pick him up. I also think Eddie got out of the car and exchanged a few words with my sisters before they left. By the way, I thought I'd included Eddie's brother's name in my original post. But, since I don't see it, his name was "Carlton Kendricks"

@MsLady328 He was cute and there was a strong resemblance between he and Eddie. However, Eddie was still the "heartthrob" over him. But, he was still handsome. He certainly "was not unattractive". I think he may have been a bit shorter than Eddie, maybe by and inch or two

Looks like they were on one of those 1960s and 70s variety shows. Complete with recorded Applause. It's already been said, but I'll say it again... These were amazing times and this was an amazing group. I think Dennis did one hell of a job, but there was nothing like the "classic" 5 Temptations. David, Paul, Otis, Eddie and Melvin.

Paul did the choreography for the Temptations. Cholly Atkin, assisted and provided the routines for the other acts on the Motown, Tamla, Gordy Records And Soul Records.

Actually it was a trade off. Paul set the blueprint for group choreography, however, his role was diminished somewhat with the arrival if Cholly Atkins. Paul is also responsible for the Supremes' trademark extended hand gesture during performances of "Stop In The Name Of Love". Check it Out! Ciao!!!

Today with all its technology I still wouldnt trade the times I came up.I met Eddie at the Apollo as well as the classic 5 and I have never gotten over those times. Eddie had an earthy spirit and was a star by birth, you know what I mean, the Temps made him a Universal star yet he was a star anyway, all 5 of them were.
