I have to say this was thoroughly disappointing. 1) The drummer was lagging BIG time. 2) The male vocalist was rather weak. 3) The vocalist in the center was the only promising one, but was rather pitchy. 4) The showmanship was nonexistent. Overall, it didn't seem very well rehearsed. I don't hate on things for the sake of it. I love the tempts! I'm a Bass/guitar player that pretends to sing. This was at best mediocre. I'm sorry.
Don't pay any attention to the uncontructive critics. Noone can be as good or as the same as the original Temptations. Or any original artist for that matter. I think you all sounded pretty good myself. Of course, I love the original and will probably always subconsciously compare but you all keep keeping on. Don't listen to the haters unless it a word to help you to improve, okay?
gjtrue, I appreciate the support. You got nothin' to worry about because Eldridge Gravy & the Court Supreme are goin hard and we're in it to win it. We just released our first album, "Us Is What Time It Is". Check out our website to hear it.
I dunno, the writing of the song aside (brilliant) I think this was a fantastic version of that song, one that I like about the same as I do the Temptations song but in a different style. I dig people, I dig.
The band is tight, especially the drummer and the cat on the bongos. Nice vocals also. I like the horns too. The keyboard is a little too quiet. I'm from the south side of Chicago and I was raised on the Temptations, and this is a good cover.....to me.
But I don't get the look. What's with the clothes???
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. We have gotten WAY better since this video was made - our first album "Us Is What Time It Is" will be released May 16. It's all originals and it kills!
Great interpretation. Really.

Catch these guys live. This video is over a year ago. They sound tight and great fun.
For anyone trying to compare Motown Legends with a band just starting out and performing live on public access, come on relax.

We got a second male singer now! Still, finding someone who can match Melvin's bass ain't gonna happen =)
We play out in Seattle often and we always get the dance floor happening...
