Ollie was excellent and under rated. I think he was just as good as Edwards and Ruffin. Ruffin I use to think was the best, but I think Edwards was better now, And I agree. Thanks Otis for keeping it together.
ON another note...thank you Ollie for sounding enough like David(and Otis would only know that at that point) to make my soul move and know I can't settle for less than being treating like a lady...rip...
Really.....! you wouldn't have had Olllie if Otis hadn't have given his blood and tears to the "the Tempations Forever" don't diss him. He is the only one still around that knows that know what TRUE harmony is and should be....Otis thank you !!!!!
Silly people bashing Otis, don't forget there wouldn't have been a Temptations group without him! They wouldn't have lasted all these years without him keeping it together when all the "so-called" voices were on drugs, missing concerts and hurting the group!!! Otis was just as important to this group as anybody else! Any real performer would know that it takes more than just being able to sing and dance to have a successful group!
@jwilson2778 I think it was Otis, David Ruffin and Paul Williams that kept the group together in the early years. But you are right. Otis stuck it out and overcame a lot. Thanks Otis.
instead of bashing Otis.Let him do his thing tagging maybe.But does anyone think he wouldn't rather be along with the Fab 5 (David,Melvin,Eddie & Paul)
The Temptations today are just a group of mediocre singers that are living off the reputation of the early guys that really made this group: Eddie, David & Paul. The Golden Voices of Motown. The last great singer this group had was Theo Peoples, and Otis woulnd up running him off! Otis basically gets these singers and uses up their talent to get paid from these gigs. He's the one that's making the most money from their engagements. I know because I'm an entertainer and have performed with them.
The Temptations are physically gone but alive in Spirit. Otis is Otis. He can never be anything else. He has never contributed any talent; just tagged on the backs of the ‘Great Temptations’ Today he lives off the ghost of the real 'Temptations'. Their royalties’ feed his selfish uncaring ego. Long live the love of David; Eddy; Paul and Melvin. They are all waiting for Otis to cross over. Otis has many prices to pay, particularly to David!!!!! Millions love you David. Real Temptations Fan
Now, I think it's only fair to say that the song to the video is not being sung by the lineup in the video. The lead singer on the song was Ali Ollie Woodson; the current lead singer does not even come close to Ali's talent. I've heard them perform "Treat Her Like A Lady" live in June this year, and they did a rather mediocre job ..
Anyone who expects to hear The Tempts sing like in this video nowadays -- you'll be in for a disappointment.
