  • One of the greatest falsettos in the history of music. He's second only to Eddie Kendricks when it comes to singing in the falsetto style. Russell Thompkins, take a bow!

  • great interview, i think it really true that he wasnt happy w/ the old group. notice that during their concert he never did spoke. Only Herb always do the anchor. But still wish they could perform again. the original (five) stylistics in the '75
