Jay Singer

“For Lovers Only” is a masterpiece to listen to. The members at that time were: Founding member Otis Williams (Tenor/Baritone) Founding member Melvin Franklin (Bass) Ron Tyson (Falsetto) Ali-Ollie Woodson (Tenor) Theo Peoples (Baritone) Ray Davis (Bass) This was sadly the last album that Melvin Franklin was on as he became sick during the recording. He was only able to complete two tracks “Some Enchanted Evening” and “Life Is But A Dream”. He also did an interlude simply titled “Melvin’s Interlude”. He died on February 23rd,1995 from congestive heart failure leaving Otis Williams as the last original founding member. Melvin was replaced by Ray Davis. He is second from the left on the album cover. He finished the rest of the tracks that Melvin couldn’t complete. He left the group soon after he was diagnosed with throat cancer. He died from the cancer on July 5th.2005. This was also the last album that Ali-Ollie Woodson was on. He left the group the next year in 1996 after he was diagnosed with throat cancer. He returned to the group for the final time in 2002 to fill in for Barrington Bo Henderson as he was unable to travel due to visa problems. Ali Woodson died on May 30th.2010 of leukemia.

Great debut solo album by Eddie Kendrick. This shows him coming into his own away from the Temptations. Rating:8/10

Second solo album of former Temptations singer Eddie Kendrick. All songs were good but some go on way too long. Rating:7/10

The greatest album of his whole solo career!

The only strong point of this album was the hit single "Dancing In The Sheets". You could tell that Howard was really ready to get this album out so that he can start a solo career.
