      Mike, buddy, it's just the way we live now. When I was young, before cell phones, my parents listened to the news at night, but during the day they lived locally, were focused on family and friends, and doing things. Church, clubs, social interaction, PTA, gardening, talking, courting, listening to music and making music....living.
      Now, the phone and its aps rule us, we are focused on ourselves, we are meaner, uneasy, our government lies to us, and we worship our cultural icons. You get what you strive for.@@mikeh6511

      I mean, most musicians back then would lip synch when they performed on television, and this is an example of that, but yeah... I love the Temptations, and I love it when singers don't rely on a computer to make it sound like they can sing the right notes. Fuck auto-tune.

      The firing of David Ruffin. At the time he was going steady with Dean Martin's daughter Barbra Gail Martin
      In June 1968, the Temptations agreed that Ruffin had finally crossed the line when he missed a June 22 Cleveland, Ohio, date with the Temptations in order to attend a performance by his new girlfriend, Barbara Gail Martin (Dean Martin's daughter).
      Five days later Ruffin was fired. He was replaced by Dennis Edwards, who had been a member of the Contours. Now that he was no longer wanted, Ruffin began to turn up at shows unannounced. When the Temptations would begin a song that Ruffin had sung lead on, he would walk out onto the stage and take the mic from Edwards. The fans loved it. The Temptations hated it. Still, the group decided to give Ruffin a second chance. He showed up late for what was supposed to be his comeback show in Gaithersburg, MD, and that was the end of that.
      popdose.com/soul-serenade-david-ruffin-my-whole-world-ended-the-moment-you-left-me/ His temper and drug abuse may have very well contributed to girlfriend Tammi Terrell death Read Wikipedia David Ruffin / he lied to Tammi proposing to her while being already married. drugs can bring out that devil in you. Had a girlfriend Jekyll Hyde.
      So sorry but truth can put a dagger in me 2 some time.

    I don't know about anyone else but I'm a 64: year black man and I'm blessed enough to have older siblings in my life . Our wonderful parents aren't with us anymore. But this music brings back tears of sadness and joy. For those of you who weren't born when this music came out I feel sorry for you but time moves on but what a great time we had this era brings back tears of sadness and joy. For those who had the opportunity to be there close your eyes and go back sometime it feels good...

    @ 1:07 the unsung bass hero James Jamerson with his unique style of two finger string plucking and the FUNK Brothers without which there would be no Motown as we remember it. And mad choreography from Cholly Atkins! The Swag of David Ruffin can't be ignored and Eddie was rumored to be the Man (to the ladies). A magical, fabulous time and thankfully these old clips are proof of that!

    73 years old Mancunian mod still listening to Motown . I'm into Bob Dylan, Springsteen , Bjork, Pink Floyd, Genesis, Radiohead, Joni Mitchell, The Civil Wars and its all bloody good music - but nothing gets into me like 1960s black American Soul of Motown , Stax and Curtis Mayfield. Thanks for this great video.
