Good evening everyone.Ivory, you are funny. I love that picture of Eddie as well.I want to be the young lady in the audience behind  him.You would have to peel me off the floor if I had been there.

I wanted to make sure everybody got the chance to read this article. Pumkin posted about it, but here's a link.

Thanks for the article. Reading about Detroit made me feel homesick just for a moment.

Kim and Jonel, didn't or don't the Tempts have this thing we're they have a common piece of jewelry? Seems like I heard that somewhere.

Cynthia, I'd have to agree with you on that one. Eddie was the definition of "debonaire" in that photo, wasn't he?

Bo_d, I have mixed feelings about that new housing development. On the one hand, it's great that Motown and the Tempts are being honored like that (I think I'm gonna try to get MY street named to "The Temptations" now too, LOL!) but the historian in me hates to see such an historic site like "Brewster Place," go to the wayside. Do we know if it's already been torn down? (Or do I have my info. all wrong?)

But you gotta love a street called "Wonder Way." Just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?

[BOdacious]

From what I understand they've torn it all down, and I'm guessing they've done some rebuilding since they're naming streets. I suppose... Yeah Wonder Way does sound cool. But you know which street/lane I'd be on all of the time!  ;D 8)

[Ivory Fair]

Yeah, seems like I remember reading in an another article someone posted that they had torn it down. But never having seen it, I'm not clear if "Brewster Place" is a building or a neighborhood. Although I get the impression it was the latter.

Anyway, there's no Bo Cir. ............ YET!!!!

Is this the right place?  I just never thought of it as being a high-rise.

[Jonel]

That can't be it because I found a source that said it has been demolished.  Now this is really going to bug me until I find a photo.

[Ivory Fair]

Those buildings are also look a little too new to be what I thought was "Brewster Place."

gosh Jonel, it's too bad we don't know ANYONE in Detroit who can help us figure this out!!! LOL! hint, hint

[kim]

Ivory would post up a picture of her favorite person Melvin!!   But she leaves out my man Paul what's up with the favoritism Ivory!!! Anyway that is a nice picture of Melvin!

[Ivory Fair]

LOL! How about my FAVORITE photo of Paul to make up for it?



..... and Dennis too for that matter!

Frank and Sammy, eat your heart out!!!!

[BOdacious]

That picture is too COOL  8) for real! They do kind of look like gangsters on there....yet STILL  8)

[Ivory Fair]

LOL! Gangsters, I hadn't thought about that!

I should have said, "Bugsy and Scarface, eat your hearts out!"

[kim]

Okay Ivory you have redeemed yourself!! Yeah I'm with Bodacious on this picture they are the original gangstas!!!

WHEN I LOOK AT THESE PIX OF THE BOYZ IT AMAZES ME EVEN MORE HOW SUZANNE DE PASSE CAME UP WITH THE ACTORS WHO PLAYED THEM.

I MEAN ANYBODY CAN DO THE MOVES AND LIPSYNC, BUT THE ACTORS LOOK,ACT AND SING AS IF YOU REALLY
WERE WATCHING THE CLASSIC TEMPTS. THE DENNIS ONE LOOKS THE LEAST(NOSE TOO THIN) BUT STILL HAS A GREAT VOICE.

SOME MAY SAY THAT OTIS' FACE LOOKS DIFFERENT THAN
CHARLES MALIK WHITFIELD BUT IF YOU LOOK AT OTIS'
OLD PICTURE WITH THE TONY CURTIS DO AND THE MOUSTACHE HE LOOKS LIKE CHARLES. IF YOU LOOK AT THE PHOTO OF OTIS IN THE 'FRO WITH THE RIPPED JEANS HE LOOKS LIKE CHARLES WHEN CHARLES WAS SHOOTING HOOPS WITH LAMONT.
