This was during the period when David, Eddie, and Dennis were touring and performing together. I know that Arthel feels blessed that she had the chance to interview, sing and do those famous dance steps with the three great leaders of the Temptations. That is a memory to be treasured forever and a day!
I had this documentary on vhs, with a James Brown tribute as well as Otis Redding. Classic material that grew legs and mysteriously walked out the front door. David Ruffin actually passed before the documentary was completed and Eddie Kendricks about 6 months later if my memory serves correct. Dennis Edwards gave a memorable performance amidst tears at David's funeral. R.I.P to the VOICES.
I agree!! She is sooooo lucky I saw this on television one Sunday back in 95 or 96. The infermercial was selling Temp songs. It truly brought back memories., I love David and Eddie!! It really hurt to see them that day, knowing they were gone. I cried some, I laughed some. I really miss them. To this day, MY BABY! is the very first song I play when I get in my car. David's voice still blows me away.Wonderful talent. So glad to see this again.Thanks for posting!

What many people do not realize, David Ruffin nor Eddie saw color in a person, they saw the person. It really bothers me when people still hold onto these thoughts. Its plain, they were humans and saw people the same!
Yes David Eli Ruffin was a well spoken man, dont let the fact he got caught with drugs fool you. That has nothing to do with his wonderful voice. People on drugs in 2010 and can not sing a note. Thank you GOD for David and Eddie. Sorry David got used and abused doing the times of extreme racism of those times and hey things still suck .
Hey if I'm not mistaken this was recorded 1986 or1987.I don't know if you can even find this cut other then here, If I can find it in my millions of vcr tapes I'll post it because it is truly a great piece.
girl, whom ever you are. you are so lucky man...I would have gave a finger to be in your spot at that moment. You got something to talk about. You danced and sung with the best. TEMPTATIONS........FOREVER.
As far as the video quality, I'm just happy to be able to see them, especially D. Ruff, in a more personal setting. Great job DiscoNights. And fraz72, David did have an incredible speaking voice, very SEXY. And he still moved good.
thanks for posting this video, it brings back fond memories but at the same time sad to see because you can see the deteriation Eddie and David were undergoing. I was really afraid to ask you who they were when I saw them on your channel. Dennis was the only one I could place but not the others. I'll add it to my Motown playlist. Great video!!
Thanks so much for posting this treasure. With your help these great guys have sent a special "Valentine's Greeting" to fans all over the world. Thanks again.

As great as David Ruffin was,I think that Paul Williams was even better.His lead on "Dont Look Back" was the best lead I ever heard from any group.
