Hello Otis (Mr. Williams): Could you tell us what happened when you were robbed of all your expensive jewelry and wrist watch a few years back? Did you ever recover any of the jewelry? Knowing how SMART you are -- you probably had it all insured. Some young groupie thought that she could PLAY the O but nah nah - YOU CAN'T PLAY THE PLAYA! NAMELY BIG "O" !!!

This is abe again,and one thing i wonder about Paul is that if he might have been a fan of Willie Mays because they were both from Birmingham and a hero of his generation?I think"For Once in My Life"reflected his versatility.

Can you imagine if Paul were still alive that one of the things he might be doing his being a choreographer for the new groups that would bring two different generations together.

Maybe Paul would do production or artist development. I think he would've thrived on the business side of music had he lived.

Hello Abe and Welcome:
I loved the Classic Five but Paul Williams was my favorite Temptation. I agree with Common, I think that if he had lived -- he'd probably be like a Creative Director in Artist Development. The Temptatons' choreography stemmed from Paul Williams and if you watch the tapes of him, I'm sure you will see why. He was an excellent dancer. All of the groups that followed the Temps copied alot of their style. The Temptations set the standards for all of the main headliner groups like Stylistics, The Delphonics (these were two popular groups while I was in latter year High School, freshman in College), that came after them. The Classics were reknowned (sp?) not only for their singing but for their moves - Choreography. -- SMOOTH, PRECISION, PERFECT TIMING... with the help of Cholly Atkins and the originator - Paul Willialms... Peace and Blessings....

If Paul was still with us. I can see him at the least consulting new groups in regards to poise,stage presence,and choreography. Paul was so smooth,and soulful

Remember in O's mini-series when O went to visit Paul once he was out of the group? Paul was trying to prove to O that he still had it. He told O " I taught You these damn steps"! {paraphrasing}I hope that really happened,cause it wasn't no lie!
