HI EVERYBODY, I KNOW THIS THREAD IS CALLED TEMPTATION HAVEN--BUT I'VE BEEN IN TEMPTATION "HEAVEN" ALL WEEKEND. I HAVE SO MUCH VIDEO OF ALL THE VARIOUS TEMPTS LINE UPS (EXCEPT FOR ELDRIGE BRYANT AND RICKEY OWENS FOOTAGE) AND EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS I TAKE TIME TO LOOK AT ALL OF THEM. ITS NO SURPRISE WHY THE TEMPTATIONS ARE THE HOTTEST TOPIC ON THE INTERNET--ALL THE LINE UPS HAVE BEEN TRUELY TALENTED. MY EMOTIONS ARE FLYING SO HIGH RIGHT NOW. I GO FROM HAPPY TO SAD THINKING BACK ON ALL THE MEMORIES AND HOW MANY TEMPTATIONS THERE HAVE BEEN. GOD MUST BE LOOKING OUT FOR THESE GUYS.......I CAN'T THINK OF ANY OTHER REASON THAT WITH SO MANY CHANGES, THAT ANY FACET OF A TEMPTATION IS STILL SO MUCH IN DEMAND--BUT IT IS--SO CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL TEMPTATIONS--PAST AND PRESENT. WITH SO MUCH TALENT ITS HARD TO CHOOSE A FAVORITE LINE UP--BUT MINE WOULD BE DENNIS (OF COURSE), RICHARD, RON, OTIS AND MELVIN.

Eizzie, the reason they are still around today is because The Classics laid the foundation for a fantastic group! The Classics are my favorite group, period. After David left, Dennis picked up the ball and ran with it. At first, I just accepted Dennis; but after the first time I saw him perform Cloud Nine, I was so impressed with Dennis' skills, he couldn't help but become a favorite. I like the lineup with Ali...but I can't see any further than that! ;D The Tempts are the greatest institution in R & B history!

I have been singing bass for 35 years and more recently started working with a group that offers a complete Temptation show. I will assure you of one thing if ever the opportunity presents itself I have no problem stepping up to the plate and making a contribution to The Tempts or The Review. More so Review because of their style and originality which takes the audience back to the Classic Five Plus Dennis.

That's exactly why I love The Review! The Classics are my favorite line up and The Review reminds me so much of them. They really do keep the flame burning.

THE REVIEW DOESN'T COMPARE TO OTIS GROUP! DENNIS NEEDS TO LOSE A LOT OF WEIGHT! So does Otis...you act like O is wearing a size 32 last time I saw him on the tube it more like 55.. Mr. Bell stop being jealous of the Review Dennis can't help it O's has never been a lead singer.. Dennis will always be lead singer with tempts.. no matter how you want to shine O's bald head he is a background singer... and his boys are background tempts... they will never ever be more than replacements of the originals you know the ones who is putting food in Jumbo O's mouth! FastNFancy,, I need to take up residents at the Dennis Edwards.... place.. Mark is acting crazy as if he is trying to convince someone O is special.. Like we care... Mark cool your heels "No Talent" is just what I said "No talent"..If you want to mad at someone, please point your fingers at the one is trying to be the leader of a 45 year old group.. Mark he became leader when everyone left the group... where was his voice when DER, EJK, and PW were in charged hiding? He knows if he would've started that B.S. he would've gotten his JUMBO “No talent” Behind Kick!

Queenie you gotta be kidding me!! Otis may have been a background singer, but that doesnt take away from what he held together. Otis started that group and its an insult to say Dennis was the leader. David Ruffin was a lot better than Dennis hands down, all facts points to that. Dennis did a decent job when David left, i dont really like Dennis and I dont care what any of you say. David had a lot more talent than Dennis. Best lineup was David, Eddie, Paul, Melvin, Otis. Bottom line, more #1 hits than any other temptation lineup. I saw that line-up in person at the Copa. They were truly an amazing performance to ever witness. They are by far one of the greatest groups ever assembled.

If I had a choice to see Dennis or Otis in concert (let the truth be told I rather see DER in concert but we know that is not going to happen), Dennis packs your bags Queenie wants to see a show... Otis go find some talent "Sail Away" was horrible... my ear hurts hearing that mess... Sean have you heard "Sail Away" lead singer RAT NO Talent Otis?. What is your opinion does the man needs voice lesson or what... please don't come back and tell me the song was a classic if you do I am going to scream like hell in 20 degrees weather... btw: who made number one hits O please... O is back ground singers the reason why you went to the concert is to see "voices"... Do you want me to name them DER... EJK...PW.. and Dennis YES Dennis... sing it with me Sean "Papa was a rolling stone....
