The Temptations

The temptations memeber who died the following: Paul Williams commited suicide David Ruffins died of drug overdose Melvin Franklin ( known as blue ) died due to health problems of his legs. Eddie Kendricks ( known as Corn ) died of Throat Cancer ( loved Corn Bread) Otis Williams still lives till today ( which is the only member of the temptations that is still alive).

According to "Scotland: A Concise History" by James Halliday, Mary would have succeeded James II, but James had another son in 1688 described as "unexpected and inopportune". So William of Orange (ruler of Holland) was invited by the English to come and bring James into obedience. He did and ran James into exile. After some confusion the English parliament conferred the joint (England and Scotland) crown upon William and Mary. Simply put, William and Mary were married. They were also cousins, William being the son of Charles II's sister, Mary, who married William II of Orange. Thus William also had a claim to the English and Scottish throne (I believe he was right after Mary and Anne). However, William did not want to be king through Mary's grace, but through his own (He did not want to be tied to Mary's strings) and he also wanted to remain king if Mary predeceased him (which she did). These were the conditions of his acceptance of the English and Scottish throne.

Eddie kendricks david ruffin paul Williams melvin Franklin Otis Williams Elbridge Bryant was actually one of the original members, not David Ruffin. Ruffin was only hired after Bryant was fired in the early sixties('63ish?) That is correct. Elbridge " Al " Bryant was the original lead. Hack

From my understanding Glenn originally left the Temptations to move into gospel arena and speak about his life after reconnecting with his spiritual self.

I think it was the pressure of him not be able to perform any more.Paul played a big part in the founding of the group and Otis was the one that held everything together.Even when hard times came upon them.I have a lot of respect for the temptations.

He is so pretty

Otis Williams did sing lead on some of The Temptations songs. One particular track is "Dont send me away". Another Otis lead is on "I Ain't Got Nothing." You listen to it at the Old School Music Lover Blog link provided. Additional "Otis" tracks appear on more later albums but such songs are rare.
