I know a bit about the chain. Flourishing in the 70's, they expanded and opened new stores all over. The Pittsburgh one seemed to be the local 'go to' store for live show tickets as they sold them...

Can't agree. The group was in turmoil when he joined. They weren't doing many live shows; Eddie was gone; Paul was on his way out; Otis injured himself & missed shows ...
all in all, it must have...

Went to the show Friday night & along with everyone else there [[it was packed) really enjoyed myself.

WOW, Otis must be getting more mellow in his old age ...

The 'classic' sound of the Tempts was almost 100% based around David & Eddie's lead vocal work ... so I can fully understand the group's fans being totally pissed off in 1971 with both exceptional...

The Temptations played Pittsburgh Civic Arena, Pittsburgh on February 5th -- was that Eddie's last show as a member of the group ?

The shows at the Carter Baron were a 7 day booking, the group performing each night. The LA Forum gig was 3 weeks after their Carter Baron stint had commenced. So Ricky can't have been sacked after...

What were Raynard's biggest successes / best song compositions during his Motown period ?
He wrote some real corkers at Chess [[Rescue Me, Higher & Higher, Because I Love You, You Got Me Baby, In...

I have Otis's book here somewhere but it's not to hand.
SO, can someone tell me if Otis deals with his time of absence from the group in 1971. When did it begin & end ?
If Otis wasn't performing...

I do agree that some 'remixes' / remakes can be awful.
When Marvin Gaye's original 60's version of "Lucky Lucky Me" was given the remix treatment, most of the 'new' versions were far inferior to the...

Surely, if the people in the act [[singer / group) involved are still alive, it's easier / cheaper to get them to do an actual live show.

The haul is 30 cassette tapes, said to contain some 66 demos of new songs.
Most are in an 'unfinished' state, hence the mention of ace remixers such as Mark Ronson.

A trawl through some of his possessions, left in Belgium when "Sexual Healing" was released, has unearthed a case full of tapes of previously unknown recordings made over there by Marvin.

That's coz it was a show presented by 2 old PIRATE RADIO DJ's & was about 1960's UK Pirate Radio stns [[based on ships so as to be 'offshore' & therefore not illegal). It was the pirate stns playing...

UK TV is running a news piece this morning about AI being used to digitally capture pop [[soul) acts performing in their prime. This is then stored & brought out for VIRTUAL TOURS in future times....

Here in the UK, we didn't have very many 'locally based' soul stars. So, we never rated any singers / groups on how long it had been since their last US chart hit [[most never even got close to...

CJD88, I'm afraid I have no idea on Otis's current member payment strategy.
Though with his 'old policy' having driven 'star lead singers' such as David [[not an 'original member' so only on a...

. . . . are you in agreement with my appraisal??
No, it was me that started this thread, so obviously not.
I really enjoyed the BBC's televised show last summer & wished I'd been at it.

Maybe they accepted that while doing much more 'work' in the group's act than Otis, they could tolerate the 'low' weekly salary ... the likes of David, Dennis and many others just couldn't. I went to...
