* The Temptations & The Four Tops.
The Temptations & The Four Tops at the Au-Rene Theater at The Broward Center for the Performing Arts- On Thursday, 1/31/19 at 8pm. Tickets go on sale 6/14/18 (10am) – ticketmaster.com.
Let’s call this one- “Going to the well once too often.”
Not trying to be mean, but when I think- The Temptations, I’m not thinking Otis Williams- and when I think- The Four Tops, I’m not thinking Duke Fakir. For the record, Williams and Fakir (neither is a lead singer) are the only original members in their respective groups currently still performing!
Take Jeff Eats’ word on this, the current lineups can’t hold a candle to the original group’s members and neither one of the current groups comes even close vocally to sounding like the phenomenal hit records that The Temptations and The Four Tops recorded in the 60’s & 70’s.
Like I said a few seconds ago, Let’s call this one- “Going to the well once too often.”

Jeff,
In the past year or so I have seen both groups on television. You hit the nail on the head, neither group looks or for that matter sounds like groups that performed in the 60’s. I seriously doubt that many of the current memebers would have ever been selected to be members of the original groups. By the way, neither group was very good.
Jeff,
You are right on the money.
Temps- Kendricks, Ruffin, Edwards
Tops- Levi Stubbs
The current groups have none of the above, mainly because they are all dead.
The groups performing today are just tribute bands in disguise. An absolute waste of time.
