At the end of the 1960s I was on vacation with my parents when I heard “I wish it would rain” for the first time. I lived in England, where it is known to rain all the time. And I fell in love with David Ruffin’s tenor. He thundered out of the speakers and took my heart by storm.
Whether Ruffin took over the lead singing or Dennis Edwards or Eddie Kendricks or Paul Williams: The temps were an all-star band as vocalists. In the course of the sixties and seventies, the tempation with their hits had an incredible run: “My Girl”, “The Way You Do The Things You Do”, “Ain’t Too Proud To Beg”, “Just My Imagination”. Later they ventured into psychedelic soul areas with “Cloud Nine”.
Her outfits were actually always great; You are responsible for the fact that I tend to get a bit of shrill colors
When I came back from vacation, I immediately bought “Wish it would rain”. At that time I was more interested in folk and just opened the door to R&B – and I still remember how I fascinated the cover where they sit as a foreign legionnaire in the desert. Her outfits were actually always great; You are responsible for the fact that I tend to a little shrill colors. And they were also far ahead with their stage show: nobody moved like the temps.
I later made friends with David Ruffin. When our bands appeared in Detroit at the same time, David came to every show and sang “(i know) I’m losing you”, a tempation cover from “Every Picture Tells a Story”. He had an incredible voice – like the fog horn on Queen Mary.
My children grew up with the lemon and closed them into the heart as well as me. Whenever they played in LA, we went to their show. They then always let a headlight to me and asked me to come on the stage. I always rejected it. I just shit too much.
