For
more than 40 years, The Temptations have shined as pioneers of popular music,
with decades of smash hits and sold-out performances. An essential component of the original Motown
machine invented by Berry Gordy, The Temptations began their musical career in
Detroit in the early ‘60s. In 1964,
Smokey Robinson wrote and produced “The Way You Do the Things You Do,” the
first major hit for The Temptations. An avalanche of hits followed, including
“My Girl,” “It’s Growing,” “Since I Lost My Baby,” “Get Ready,” “Ain’t Too
Proud to Beg,” “Beauty Is Only Skin Deep” and “I Wish It Would Rain.”
Beyond
their fabulous singing, The Temptations became known for smooth stepping and
flawless presentations. “The Temptation
Walk” became the staple of American style, flair, flash and class.
When
the ‘60s and ‘70s turned political, The Temptations got serious. They changed their tone, dress and music with
such hits as “Runaway Child,” “Cloud Nine,” “I Can’t Get Next To You,” “Papa
Was a Rolling Stone” and “Psychedelic Shack.” The Temptations explosion
continued in the '80s with their appearance on “Motown 25” in 1983, and into
the '90s with an NBC mini-series in 1998 that chronicled the group's early days
and rise to fame, earning them a coveted Emmy® Award. This April, the group
performed on “Dancing with the Stars” as part of Motown Week.
