Board,,
Can someone please settle the score how David became Tempt??
There are a lot of erroneous stories floating around cyberspace David inception to tempt. Board we need to lay these stories to rest what is the truth as you know the truth.
Story Number 1: Jimmy suggest to David tempts is looking for a 5 member and he should joined the group.
Story Number 2: One day David and Jimmy were at the Otis's house and Otis mention to Jimmy tempts are looking for member. Al has ran his course with tempts and members are seriously thinking about replacing him. I know this is a liar because of the person who is telling the story.
Story Number 3: Anna and Barry thought it will be an excellent move to bring David to the tempts because the higher ups want the group to excel.
Which story do you believe? How did the man with a whole lot of Soul become the lead Singer of the most famous group in America???

Again this is one of those things I am not 100% sure of but i am more then 70% sure .. The way I know it is: Barry found David over at Anna ... and thought he would sound good with a motown group called the temptations (duh) ... and at first the tempts thought David just wanted a boost into a solo carrear and wouldn't give a jack squat about them ... But Barry insist David get let in .. so they took David Soard to the top of the charts and dropped him at the first sign of trouble COUGH otis COUGH when certin people ACHO-OTIS! ... Whew I got the bug ... hold on ... *sniff* ... Could have helped him through it ;D

Ruff had already recorded,and performed before joining The Temptations. Ruff was singing solo and playing drums. He wanted to sing with The Temptations,so when there was a opening In walks Ruff. They were also considering Jimmy,but I don't think they made him an official offer.Pail did not trust Ruff's motives,but BG wanted him. He was good for that damn group. I don't care what Otis says.

It was Paul who did not trust David's motives I thought it was O and Eddie?? Darn I need stop reading half truth books.

I've often read that Melvin, who stated in interview, that he didn't want David either. That's interesting that Paul didn't want David in the group. O claimed that he wanted Ruff in the group. Talk about a ball of confusion! LOL! ;D ;D ;D

Talk about a ball of confusion! LOL! ;D ;D ;D Melvin did not want David in the group he better be glad he was in the group. How many number one leads did he sing better yet how many people were screaming out his name NONE!! The nerve of this man if he don't sit his pop-eye self down somewhere he better. The man is a pop-eye hypocrite throwing bible verses in around and back stabbing folks. David, Eddie, and Paul please throw Melvin out of the group. You can't be nice to people. Darn Jerk.
