Richard Street should be in the RRHOF group. You know more inside information than most of us. I talked to the Temptations in 2002 for an hour. Truly gentlemen. I didn't get to talk to the bass ,man; but to Otis Ron Terry Bo. It is not an easy life.
Remember Otis and Melvin figured it out that they had to keep performing to make any money. Also leaving Motown and coming back Melvin and Otis got the right to produce their stuff. At that time it was revolutionary. The only other performer to challenge the system was Curtis Mayfield; Curtom records he founded.
Great post

Now that is something I agree with you on 1000% and that being Richard Street should be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! He should have been there now for years. When the Tempts were inducted in 1999, Richard was in good standing with the group and had been a member for 28 years by that point [[longer than some of those inducted).
