Melvin Franklin. The world's greatest bass singer. There will never be another one like him.

Such A Sad Loss To Music Lovers Worldwide. The deaths within the Temptations family are tragic. We will miss them always!

Are there any bass singers left?Melvin Franklin and Ray Davis from Parliament/Funkadelic(who recently passed) were the standard. But Melvin's voice was incredible. I remember folks would cheer even when he spoke. I still feel sadness 10 years after his passing, but he, along with the Temps, left such a body of work that all I have to do is put on some music by the Temptations and that sadness disappears.

MELVYN FRANKLIN, EDDIE KENDRICKS and DAVID RUFFIN. It sounds like a TEMPTATIONS reunion in heaven. Everyone up there must have good seats, it is going to be one hell(excuse the pun)of a concert. Seriously, these guys were great, I miss hearing them and watching them perform. I missed the originals, only saw the TEMPTATIONS after they were all gone. Still a great show. GOD BLESS.
