with an appreciation of The Temptations
'Like the Drifters in the 50s, they kept changing lead singers. Their peak came when David Ruffin, the gravel-throated singer, and Eddie Kendricks the falsetto tenor, traded lead vocals to maximum effect. To have performed the original versions of "My girl","Ain't to proud to beg" and "I wish it would rain" and then with an almost totally new lineup to have performed "Papa was a rolling stone", shows their ability to adapt and survive. Though there is still a group called The Temptations their great days, which started in 1964 ended when Norman Whitfield stopped producing them'.
