      I think Levi, despite his great vocal talent, lacked confidence in his dance moves and was happier having the others on stage with him. They were his friends as well as band members.

      Luther used his voice like an instrument, fantastic vocalist.
      Alexander was good but not in that league.
      Eddie Levert, now he was awesome. Saw the Ojays live in 73 at the Hammersmith Odeon and he knocked me for six. As Don Cornelius on Soul Train said "One of the best voices in soul music!"
      For me though, Teddy Pendergrass had the best soul voice of them all.

Let’s be real when Paul, Eddie and of course David left the Temptations and with the exception of Dennis Edwards, the later Temps had nothing on the Four Tops, also as a woman most women will agree that the Four Tops also had the better looking men (All Four of them were handsome men in their young days)only two were seriously handsome with the Temps and that was Eddie and Otis. Everybody else in the Temps just looked ok. I however love both but I loved the Tops for ever, and I loved the Temps the original Temps.
