Glenn is my favorite tenor ever. His voice changed the game for the temptations. Respect to you Glenn for your contribution with the temptations
I think him and Damon Harris is neck and neck when it comes to the tenor spot. Both were great. RIP Mr. Harris.
No one can never argue that
EDDIE KENDRICKS IS A LEAGUE ALL BY HIMSELF.......PERIOD sang more hits than all the replacement put together........period no comparison......period
@@garymayfield5995 no doubt
How the hell he changed the game too the TEMPTATIONS WHEN THIEY WERE ALREADY ESTABLISHED,THEY WAS AT THEIR LOWEST FORM WHIT HIM IN THE GROUP
This was absolutely excellent 1st hand knowledge. This beats anything you could read of someone else's account. Eddie was also my idol and I sure appreciate your attention to have his back. I hated seeing him go down on the voice, but I didn't lose any respect for him. I have been singing his stuff since I was 10 years old. He was truly the best tenor I had ever heard. Thanks, Glenn, for your standing beside him (Eddie) in his time of need.
I would never knock Eddie he was amazing
@@sharronwitherspoon8767 please stick to rap
lung cancer was destroying eddies singing voice...it's clear nobody knew...and maybe even eddied didn't know at the time. when he found out he had lung cancer and the doctor told him he would need to have chemotherapy to treat it and he would lose his hair, Eddie declined the treatment and he eventually died from it. dam shame! what a voice he had!! only 1 !!
I love you Glenn Leonard 😍😍😍😍😍
Excellent respectful interview. Especially on the thin brotha man Eddie k he did do my people hold on. Respect. Blkluv an blkpwr 4ward Glen sings great silent night slams. Tempts 4sho nuff
Respect to Glenn for telling the truth and being honest,because everyone had issue
Yes, Mr. Leonard’s version of Silent Night is legendary❤ It’s a classic and I play it from Nov-Jan. It’s up there with Nat King Cole and Mariah Carey Christmas Classics. Glenn Leonard should write an autobiography. We need to hear the truth and not just Otis’ story.
Hey they were human and sometimes we don’t see what’s happening on the inside we just see the smile but I love Temps❤
Awesome interview…AWESOME!♥️
Yes the respect for each other,Eddie said he wanted to remain grounded
Love Glenn!! Thanks so much for posting this interview!!
He should do more interviews so much knowledge n would love to see him write a book
One of the best interviews.
Thank you
Excellent interview - Glenn has never really spoke on a lot of this. And he’s still out there touring.
Good one
i got it! had to watch all the way through ,found out why he left the group. he should have stayed!!
Somebody wasn’t paying attention to the interview.
He gave a truthful interview and. I bet it’s even more but he told it honestly
Great story and trutb❤
The last album Glenn recorded
with the Temptations was
“Surface Thrills” which was
released on February 18th,1983.
He’s in between Richard Street and
Melvin Franklin on the album cover.
And Eddie didn’t even come back.
Ron Tyson took his place.
Exactly how did he quit before that album was recorded. Plus Eddie and David became a duo.
Questions missed..why did they let Damon Harris go and give them the opportunity to audition anyone
What did he think about Ron Tyson replacing him, Ron Tyson wrote songs for the temptations while they were on Atlantic Records with Louis Price.
The "Surface Thrills" was actually recorded in 1982 then released in Feb. 1983. Glen was definitely gone from the group the end of 1982, because they filmed a live show at Harrah's in Atlantic City Jan. of 1983 with Ron Tyson. Glen sings on The Surface Thrills record and is pictured on the cover, but he was gone before it was released.
Richard Street was only 7 days older than Melvin, but I guess that still qualify as a big cousin, 😆.
I learned something this morning. Great job!
Thanks so much for featuring my second favorite living Temptation! (Theo is first) Glenn loves to talk and tell stories. This is the first time I heard his version of why/how he left the group, and of how Silent Night came together.
Thank you, I also did an episode with Theo as well
@@PrimeTime95 Yes, I viewed it.
@@localmatterspodcastofgeorg3624 thank you so much
Theo is not a tenor though.
@@drelorenz1965 Did I say he was/is?
Only learn about this man from old video of a testimony that was given by him.
The Great Grave Robbery - Rev. RW Shambach
Powerful Testimony
Lord I pray 🙏 we all be ready upon the Return of Jesus Christ.
I like the truthful interviews we know it was sex drugs rocking roll that’s what that life brings you
Only one question that I wanted to know, and that was how he knew the position opened up and why Damon left the group?
But I’m really appreciative of this interview and even explaining why he left the Tempts, and as a real fan I had never heard that story
I saw where Otis and Dennis interviewed with different interviewers talking about the reunion The money, Eddie, David. Otis really didn’t want to do the reunion but was talk into it. The agreement was The 5 now Temptations members plus the 2 Original Lead singers If all 7 didn’t show they wouldn’t get paid! Otis and Eddie didn’t get along at all before Eddie left The Temptations. Otis said David couldn’t be trusted. All The Temptations needed the money that The Temptations Reunion would bring in great income for everybody. Berry Gordy, Otis, Melvin everyone saw right a way before the taping of The Reunion. Eddie had lost his Voice had cancer of the lung they later found out. Otis talked about Eddie trying to fight him before he left the temptation. David didn’t show up for a show right when Otis son die. Watching The Temptations movie it shows a lot that happened so is the movie wrong about the Reunion? Dennis interviewed about reunion and what happened being In shocked about Eddie Voice. ??? I hate all this happen I Love all of The Temptations. Dennis Edward interviewed with Tom Merco answer a lot questions.
@@shearglory Damon Harris Joined The Group With Eddie & David Which Later Became Dennis Edwards Temptations Revue
The movie embellish a lot of things like for instance, it was Paul who didn't want to go back on stage on that New Year party. I don't know why they lied about it.
@@drelorenz1965 I think they did it to make the story flow of AL being a problem leading up to that moment
@@drelorenz1965
That was the producers’ fault which is why they got sued.
Otis always said that he had no control of how the miniseries was presented.
There were quite a few "untruths" in that movie. Trust me.
That hair piece lol smh
Nobody Better Than Eddie
Eddie kendricks is the man ........HANDS DOWN
......PERIOD
