- The Temptations are an American vocal group that formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1960. They were known for their success in the 60s and 70s at Motown Records. The group's repertoire has included, during its five-decade career, R&B, doo-wop, funk, disco and soul music. Known for their recognizable choreography, distinct harmonies, and flashy onstage suits, the Temptations have been said to be as influential to soul as The Beatles are to pop and rock. Having sold tens of millions of albums, The Temptations are one of the most successful groups in music history. As of 2010, the Temptations continue to perform and record for Universal Records with its one living original member, Otis Williams, still in its lineup.
The Temptations helped put Motown Records on the map in 1964, with their song "The Way You Do The Things You Do" rising to the top of the charts. They were the first Motown act to earn a Grammy Award. Three classic Temptations songs, "My Girl", "Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)", and "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone", are among The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.
Recorded live at Harrah's Atlantic City in 1983

How lucky I am at 74 listening to the music of my youth. Dancing and singing along. Thank you. Loved it then. Love it now.
Happy for you
I had the privilege of attending one of the 25th Anniversary concerts back in the early 1980's, which featured all of the members of the Temptations over the years, including David Ruffin and Eddie Kendrick. A truly magical experience.
Grew up listening to the Temptations during the 60's. My all time favorite group.
Same here, 86yrs,young. Same heart, ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ 💕 💘 ❤️ 😍 brain. Thank 🌎 😊 GOD, WE'RE LIVING. DOROTHY JO THOMAS.
My kind of music! I am 75 still moving to the greatest sound ever!!....
2024* im40, and love this music.
It's 2022 Still Listening To The Great Temptations...Love It!!!
Alexa, play the Temptations.
Two of the most high-class groups to ever step on a stage: The Temptations and the Four Tops. Bless them all.
I love the temptations
Hello As thecrowflies
@@goodrobertson5952 ★*I really love you guys
Ojays included
I agree that the Temptations and The Four Tops were very classy. Oh, what great entertainers!!!. I lived through this era. No one can match the music of the 50' s and 60' s.
To all those dissing this lineup, as you age....go sit yourself down and rock until you take your last breath. That's what you insist these great men do. I am grateful they kept the music going, entertaining me into my later years. They sounded wonderful. It was their time. Live your memories but no need to put down anybody. Nothing, not even you, stays the same. No one is bigger than the group!!!
That's cool and all but Ron Tyson hands down sucks bro how do you mess up Masterpiece I mean even I'm not a big fan of Glenn but I think hes even better than Ron
Music that will never die. The Temptations will always be great.
Hey dear how are you doing over there ?
Hello Cheryl 👋
Rest in Peace Mr. Dennis Edwards. You will be sorely missed. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent with us.
Hello 👋
His daughter was a co worker of mine, very sweet girl, looked just like him !
Amazing music
I knew Richard could hold his own but OMG!!! His voice was gold on here!🙏🏾
And his range.... awesome performer 🥰
Me and my wife was there that night, those guys sound even better in person!!! Salute to the best group of all time!
I would go to every show when they were in Baltimore Md.
I envy you greatly sir! As a 21 year old, I can get incredibly sad knowing that Otis is the only original Temp still standing and that I will probably never see the current Temps performing live. Especially during these harsh times. I must've watched this concert about 20 times now, and it never gets boring.
Excellent music wish it was being made today it's so goof to listen to.want to tjsnk you. Kirby glenn, on mom phone?🥰
Lucky develop 😊
Hi attempting
Such a class act, you won't see entertainment or music like this again.
The very definition of takent and class. Their music will never go out of style ❣️
These guys, the 4 Tops' The Delfonics, the Manhattans, and the Drifters were the ones who displayed absolute class, even through the utmost adversity.
May the Temptations always be remembered and held up as the number one group of entertainers of the world. We who have lived during this period in time who were privleged to or blessed to witness their greatness either in person or through their recordings must acknowledge that all especially the original members were some of the greatest song stylests in every vocal range that they would use. Blessings to all of them Paul, Eddie, Melvin, David, Dennis, Richard, Ali, and a special Thanks to Mr Otis Williams for putting and keeping them in our hearts and minds forever Temptations. Thanks and forgive me for the names I forgot to mention.
Mr. Vanderhorst : I can b a witness i was a young girl when the groups was formed. Danced a many dances on their music NO OTHER GROUP COMPETE W/THEM. They laid out the BLUE PRINT for all who came AFTER. 😃😃💗🎵🎵🎼🎼🎤🎤🎶🎺🎤

What a excellent blend of soul and talent.
Dennis Edwards puts 110 percent into his performance. The entire group were amazing. Love them.
I'd rather listen to Dennis with laryngitis on the crappiest PA ever than most of the so-called 'talent' today,how standards have fallen but I have to say that the Temps and their ilk set the bar incredibly high !!
My Cousin yes he was awesome. The Group was awesome I listen to them still today and I’m 25 years younger

If this world were mine I WOULD BRING THEM ALL BACK!!! Just Love, Love, Love the TEMPS. My kids had the privilege to enjoy this music when they were growing up. REAL MUSIC - RAW TALENT. The voices, the music, the moves.
If This World 🌎 Were mine, I Too, Would Bring Back The Temptations, and The ❤️ Heartfelt Songs They Gave Us. We Can't Thank These Groups Enough For Being Such A Hugh Part of Our lives. And Still Today are There in Our ❤️ Hearts. I Love These Guys. ❤️
I need to rewrite my earlier comment what I was trying to say is : The Precision , The Timing , The Sync , The Steps , The Professionalism was still there & displayed with the help by none other than Mr Otis Williams proved that The Temptations were The Best Group on. The Planet !!! Rock on Temptations , Rock on Brothers !!
Hello dear how are you doing over there ?
Temptations forever
I love the temps
Agree
Awesome Performance ...The Great Temptations ❤
Wish I could've caught them in concert. But I am glad to see that they have had millions of views on CZcams. Good music will never die.
They still tour, albeit with only one original member. I'm going to see them this March because it's the only chance I'll ever have to glimpse even a fraction of this great band in action.
@@razzledcroaker3678 I actually got to see them in concert last year after I had written my initial response. Yes, there is one original member who I believe is 84 and still amazing. They really put on a great show. You'll have fun! I cover "To Proud to Beg." My own upcoming single "Integration Education" to be release early next year is a tribute to the soul groups of the '60s. Most of my songs are more acoustic, though.
60 minutes of pure Motown!
One of my favorite groups, their music will never get old or boring my heart goes out to such amazing entertainers with amazing voices especially Mr Ruffin
❤️🌹❤️!!!
Not only can they sing but they can dance
They are true lperformers. And they are fit. I can only imagine how much work it takes to do what you do. My hat is off to you..
They are great.
The Guys gave a lot of Marines, great motivation to get back from Viet Nam and to live again . THAT WAS JUST huge! JOHN
Their endurance is crazy to be able to move and sing in sync for that long and not look winded #respect💯
New Edition does the same. These men ( Temptations) are teenagers, but can move.
By
How about those"Temptations"? How about them, aren't they just wonderful?
My NUMBER"1"VOCAL GROUP"of ALL TIMES!!!!
DID any of you guys knew that in 1969, The TEMPTING TEMPTATIONS WERE THE"WORLD'S BEST RECORDING GROUP IN THE, WORLD"!!!
MOVED OUT THE"BEATLES"!!!
HOW ABOUT THAT!
IF YOU EVER LISTEN TO"BALL of CONFUSION" THE BEATLES NEW RECORD IS A GAS!"LET IT BE"!!!
WHAT A SONG &HEY JUDE!
YES, THE TEMPTS JUST KICKED THE BEATLES OUT OF THE#1BEST RECORDING GROUP IN THE WORLD!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
They didn't do it that long. I think only one original. The rest are new living off the name
There is no endurance ..they are all new except Otis
Can't and ain't nobody gonna do what these guys has ever done with music. A 1 in a million talented group and Love these fellas.
Oh how I miss the Temptations of 'old'. Motown was the soundtrack of my youth
Don't know where you live, but I grew up across the border from Detroit . These songs were the soundtrack of our lives as well. I can remember music playing everywhere during the summer - pouring out of the shops, cars, and homes, people dancing in the streets, what a time it was we were so lucky. Thanks Detroit, for giving the world some of the best music that ever was!!!!!
The Temptations at their best; I watch this over and over again!
Fhhhhuigcxfdxxxdd
The Temptations has always been my idle since I was a teen. Their music is so priceless to the World.
I love The Temptations more than words can describe. They make me feel so happy.
I have always loved The Temptations! So glad I can still hear them. They are irreplaceable!!
Hello Leslie 👋👋
No body shot over thr lyrics ; you just live through them.
The One and Only Temptations !! Awesome harmony and impeccably dressed. A class act. ❤
"Ain't nobody coming to see you OTIS" ... Funny line from the movie... But people Will keep coming to seeing Otis because he is the last surviving member of a fantastic vocal group!
Temptations forever!
Just Love them
Temptation were one of my mentors, I know every song they recorded and Lou Rawls recommended that I audition for them when David Ruffin left. One of the Best Vocal Groups Of All Time In My Time.
Wow!!!!! What an incredible experience!!!! I was 16 when they skyrocketed to stardom. I remember every song 🎵 and every lyric. Pop music today cannot compare.
Why didn't audition?
Did you audition? I mean Lou Rawls,he is a brilliant singer,and he recommended you so you be good.
The baddest bass singer of all times, Mr. Melvin Franklin! The mighty mighty Temptations!! Awesome!!!
The Dennis Edwards era is why The Temptations ' lives on forever
Not
David made them immortal❤
Sure, the original Temps are matchless, and nobody could argue that, but these three, minus Paul, Eddie and David, are holding their own. They still can bring it!
Always classy, smooth and polished, one of my all time favourites from out of Motown. Never change stations when the Temptations come on.
There will never be another Temptations and that remark says it all
Awesome job
This Temptations lineup was awesomely talented, i.e., Otis Williams, Dennis Edwards, Ron Tyson, and the late Melvin Franklin and Richard Street. Give some props to Otis Williams for having survived all the up's and down's of maintaining the stellar reputation of The Temptations all these decades since their genesis as The Distants/Primes and Elgins. You may not love Otis for some of the things he had to do to keep the Temptations at the top of their game, but he gets my respect & admiration to the max!
Thanks for your great comment Daniel - you sound like a big fan and appreciate The Temptations talent! Please feel free to subscribe to the channel to enjoy more of our great music :)
I will.
i agree, if it wasnt for otis' strong hand on the group, it wouldnt have been what it became. he really kept the group going, even to this day. he also gets my respect and admiration to the max too!
Christina Robinson OTIS HAD TO DEAL WITH DIFFERENT EGOS ALL THE TIME. AND STILL MANAGED TO KEEP THE GROUP INTACT. DESPITE THE CONSTANT PERSONEL CHANGES. AND ALL THE UPS AND DOWNS GREAT VIDEO
+Daniel Held ... know what and who you meant...but its Dennis Edwards... not Franklin. LOL
I love melvins voice.. Such a good bass in that voice!
TheDanishBully So do I ! Love his smile too,sad to know they are no longer here to make their magic !
Melvin with that magnificent deep voice!
My favorite group of all time they sound just as good today as they did back in the day. I miss this kind of music.
I'm very happy that "Otis" kept the Temptation together after death of the other tempts. Been a true fan since day one!

I can see Paul jamming right along with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing! Watching their patented moves. He was so graceful and light on his feet!
Yes he did
This is what you call a total package. Artists now are better known for their back up dancers and lip syncing. These are true stars.
Otis needs soooooo much credit for keeping the number one group in history together. Thank you Otis.❤️
OH YEAH!!!!!

@@anniejohnson2144 hey dear how are you doing over there ?
Im a young 40 in 2020 and I love the Temptations so much. This is real MUSIC!!!!!! Melvin was the man!! I love his bass
Hello dear how are you doing over there ?
the line up may change but the melody of The Temptations will always STAY! the same. Live Forever eternally Quintet Vocalists.✝
They open the door to greatness in R&B music. A group gave us so much in real music that reach the heart of the matter. In love music, just a jam and made us all dance to the groove of the Temptations. A SURE WINNER IN MUSIC ONE OF THE BEST. A TRUE CLASS ACT OF GREAT ENTERTAINMENT.
Can never come back. Sixties and seventies could never be duplicated, ever. That's why new groups have to incorporate this music. Motown!
They are the best group of all times. They will never be duplicated, because they are the best that came through Motown's, bar none!!!
That dance routine was out of sight the Temptations had it together the guys were great💖💖DP
I love their energy!!! Their hits are off the charts.
Rest In Peace Dennis Edwards, Melvin Franklin, & Richard Street.
Probably my favourite line-up.
Music is all the better for them....60s was the best time....good music never dies..
There was no week link! Every voice, every move, every emotion personified by the whole. It was just human feelings. No mention of race. It was that we are all alike. We all experience the same feelings. They brought everyone together. Boy, could we use them today!
this group was simple phenomenal. This is the first time I seen them live in concert. These singers of today can't even come close to these legends
The closest thing we have to that group is new edition................... The temptations were smooooooooth!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@markjackson7632 no
Ah come on, what about NE?
Let's make it 🔥 tonight!!NE
They were silky. They was Great.
The Ultimate Showmen and probably the greatest group to ever hit the stage!!!! Mesmerising!!!!!
Temptations is one of the best groups ever come out of Motown I can see them singing but I can also love them stepping yes they give a great show I think they would number one group out of Motown to me
It's 2022 and I gladly got pulled back here by a comment. It's better each time. I now understand why wine tastes better with age.
When being able to harmonize was still important.
Tenaciti Vries to the gym today .........
thanks
You forgot to mention it was also when people could actually sing!
these guys are legends to R&B soul music...
Legends in music 🎵 period!!!! They are great!!!! Love all of them!
2020 listening to what I need this time in history. Never another group as these guys. Enjoyed during the virus mess.

Amen!!!!!
Ottis Williams was the strongest never got up in the drugs like the others so sad thanks for keeping it all together Ottis for all those years.
Unfortunately, he is only a backing singer. All the talent ( David, Eddie and Paul) passed away through abuse of one drug or other ( Crack, alcohol or tobacco).
PREACH!
He admitted to using too
@@ccclawncare1219 Big difference between using and Abusing! Nevertheless.. "He" is STILL with us!
The Greatest of all times
Those thunder effects for I Wish It Would Rain were cool
R I P Dennis Edwards 2/2/2018 your voice shall lives on... (Tears)
Dennis was very good, I agree. But for my money, David Ruffin was number 1. Just sayin'
@@artbrookey3341 DAVID RUFFIN WOULD NOT SHOW UP FOR WORK, (1982 REUNION TOUR), TEMPTATIONS HAD TO KEEP IT MOVING
@@ronaldballard5098I do understand the reasoning behind it all. Just saying, to me, his voice was the best...I could be wrong, I think the movie..The Five Heartbeats, was loosely based on the Temps early days
@@artbrookey3341 The Five Heartbeats was based On The Dells.
@@richardjackson9767 Good to know...this is truly one of my all time favorite movies...took forever to find it in blue ray
THE TEMPTATION"S ARE THE SUPER MASTER OF A CONCERT"S IN THE WORLD # 1 SECOND TO NONE.....
RIP Dennis Edwards! You will be missed!
I worked with his daughter, very sweet girl !
@@SuperBeachbum74 that’s amazing!
The standards for which all groups are held by!
Rest in peace and God bless all the original Temps.
Otis is the only one alive! (No Drugging)
There have been over 26 of the Temptatjons at last count. They keep that sound alive. I saw them in around 1973 or 74 and had back stage pass to meet each one. Got autographs and remember them as very friendly and large warm hands. Ha. This is a great sounding group with fantastic moves.
Even Lloyd G William's who sang and recorded the songs in Animal House ( Shamma Lamma Ding Dong. And Shout etc) it was his voice singing not fictitious Otis Knight who lip synced and Loyds great voice dubbed in. And yes, Lloyd G William's got cheated out of record royalties and credits. Bad deal!!
Another trivia...Paul Williams and Eddie Kenfrick went to grade school together in Alabama. Got into a Tiff and Paul dumped a bucket of mop water over Eddie's head. They became friends but moved to other states. Kendri KS notified Paul Willia.s that Otis had 2 openings in music group so they joined tovether.......🎶⭐🎶

Hello Sue👋👋
MY FAVORITE MOTOWN GROUP-THE TEMPTATIONS...THE BEST!
Old Man River shows off their awesome accapella harmonies. Most of the tunes in this concert take me right back to 1970-71. I was a an east coast guy hitting the west coast for the first time, thanks to uncle sam. lol Temptations on the radio, cold coors in hand, and cruising pacific coast highway 1. Who needs a time machine, when we have music like this to take us there.....thanx for the post and memories.
THE TEMPTATIONS ARE EXTRAORDINARY LEGIONS TO ALL THE WORLD!!!
Rock on Temptations
RIP, Dennis Edwards 🌹🌹🌹
Not only could they SING but the STEPS were all too excellent!!

This is the era of music I love the most. Performances were lifetime memorable. A concert made you feel like the world's troubles did not matter. Subsequently, in addition, these guys and others...their music is responsible for a lot of babies back then. Haha.
I think so!!!
Melvin pushing through aches and pains like it was nothing!
TRUE THAT, I'AM RON ON BASS THAT DENNIS EDWARD WAS TALKING ABOUT, I'VE SEEN MELVIN PUSH THROUGH HIS PAIN & ACHES
The Temptations used to always put on a class act show.
They still do I saw them three years ago in Albany New York I was 60 years old and rocking out

I grew up knowing when The Elgins first started 1960 BKA The Temptations still watching and listen in 2019 no other has come close to the performance of these talent men. Thanks onemediamusic for sharing
Growing up in Detroit back then was music paradise. Every single week another group was throwing out hit after hit, and it became expected and adored. Every generation gets theirs, music constantly evolves, but I honestly believe this love was the very best.
Love every single member of the Temptations. I could never say which of the singers are my favourite performer. RIP to all.
RIP to my Dad Richard Street I miss him so! Thanks for posting!
1 of the all time greats and 1 of my all time favorites
All of Motown music is fantastic they are all the greatest mucus artists of all time Tank u Barry Gordy for making such great music with Soo manygreatmusians
An amazing talent
I was in love with your father...
Great entertainer.

Long live the temptions!!!
Man they could dance,just amazing
Great show, Great talent.
they are the that's what real music sounds like one of the best groups ever
Always loved these guys. Ran out of superlatives back in the 60`s.
Real Singing!!!
One or the greatest group of all in 60s and 70s and early 80.
I totally agree
THE GOATS....
The fact that The Temptation transcend all Generations is incredible
Love you temps!! Dennis, God bless you! Rest up now, you've earned it! Love you guys! Temptations forever...
Thank u guys for always doing beautiful music God bless you today n always.
.....the legacy of the legends continues WOW (53+years)what can I say!!!!!!
THE TEMPTATIONS, BEAUTIFUL AND FOREVER !!!!!!
Otis Williams you are glue that held the genius fabric assembling together the greatest show the world has ever experienced. When the Temps needed a voice to speak to the human heart you stepped to the microphone and laid the rap down. I hope these words have been a blessing.
just simply incredible, the epitome of Motown, at its best. I miss them......
Hello 👋
Love Richard Street!!!! Those dimples and awesome smile
The Temptations ... there is absolutely nothing they cannot sing with greatness.
The Temptations name is associated with spectacular harmony and precision choreography. 🍾 🥂 🍷
They were the greatest of all of times and always a showstopper no matter where they were. I'll never forget them. Portia
Dennis Edwards will surely be missed great performer rest in peace
Hello 👋
When I hear the term GROUP then this is who my mind immediately gravitates to! Untouchable in any category in my opinion....
One word describes the Temptations from their beginning to the present and distinguishes them from most of today's performers. CLASS
I think they were the greatest I watch them every day on my phone they are missed
1st Logan the same
Truly Missed
Keep watching
64- 72 are there greatest year's, that's just my opinion, think many will agree
