I think people forget that all these singers are friends. One day while doing research I was dumbfounded by how many times various Tempts, under their own names not the name Temptations, sang backup for other established artists like Smokey Robinson, et al. This was in the official Motown records of artists' recording sessions (and they were so many artists) who were contributing to any one record. We all remember the times the Tempts sang backup for other artists, the Supremes sang backup for other artists, etc. Stevie Wonder played the harmonica on one song on "For Lovers Only."
In April a 2-CD album of the Tempts and Supremes singing together is coming out.
Sometimes one artist was just walking through the studio on their way somewhere, and whoever was recording (or maybe it was the producer) asked him/her to sing the rough vocals or background or something. These people (whether or not Motown) were and are one big family. Perhaps it is like our own families. We get mad at each other, but we're always family.
AS to Dennis and the Review mentioning the passed Tempts, well, some people do it that way and others feel it inside. It's a like a funeral. The person who cries the loudest and the hardest is not necessarily the person who is grieving the most.

Ellen in no way was I ever trying to give you a compliment of any kind. GC is good, but he is no Ollie. Just don't ever think I was trying to give you a compliment on ANYTHING!
