Paul- died Eldridge-fired because of altercations w/ Paul Otis- still with the temptations Eddie- died of lung cancer Melvin (Blue)- died of a seizure Paul- suicide but some beg to differ David- overdose on drugs David Ruffin was replaced Eldridge so he was not an original temptation but he was named one of the original 5 because he replaced Eldridge before they really blew up
Originally: Eddie Kendricks David Ruffin Paul Williams Melvin Franklin Otis Williams David Ruffin was not an original Temptation, he took the place of Elbridge "Al" Bryant after Elbridge physically attacked Paul Williams backstage after a new years party... David Ruffin was a member of the the "Classic 5"...
