    Ruff and E.K. The heart and soul of THE Temptations!
    Along with Paul, their lead voices defined what would become the immortal Classic Five. Although many others followed with Otis, the original sound and vibe that they embodied together never was, nor ever will be duplicated or eclipsed. Rest in Peace my brothers. You gave the world something special. It will last for generations, as will our deep appreciation. 👑🎤👓🎶

I can’t believe it’s been almost 50 yrs. since he left me. I miss him& there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about him. Rest well (Baby Douglas). Your Sis,Linda

      I'm in full agreement with you. I loved them in the 60s....listened to them all the time at home, on the juke boxes, danced to them and learned their lyrics to sing along. I've loved them ever since and know there is nobody even close to them ever since. Rap is Crap....this is SINGING with SOUL.

    David was emotional on Eddie's song. I think he knew how sick Eddie was. He knew Eddie's voice was failing because he had cancer. Dennis said in an interview that Eddie had to leave the stage at every concert to get oxygen.

      @ashley4034 Рік тому +2

      That was a good point. But I believe he was so emotional because he was reflecting on Paul (Every night on my knees I pray) but also too because he was battling addiction and really wanted to be free. Just my opinion. But we will never know. RIP to all these legends 🙏🏽

      @Linda Hines Yes, I love the videos! lol Those guys dressed sharp back in the day...I wish I could have seen them in person way back in the day, but I wasn't born till 10-18-1964...😢💔
      To all of the Temptations (just an hour or so late) Happy Father's Day! ❤🎶❤
