The Temptations chat to I Like Music
Formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1960, The Temptations have one of the longest tenures on Motown, second only to Stevie Wonder. The group, known for its recognizable choreography, distinct harmonies, and onstage suits, were as influential to soul as the Beatles were to rock and pop.

From My Girl, Papa Was a Rollin' Stone and Can I Get A Witness, to Ain't Nothin' Like The Real Thing, I'll Be There and Don't Leave Me This Way, they've sold over 22 million albums and had smash hits across the world.
As the band release their Classic Soul Hits best of album (WIN A COPY here), I Like Music caught up with three of The Temptations to talk about their songs, The Grammys and their own temptations in life.
"I Like Music because… there's no way I could ever imagine a world without music." TERRY, THE TEMPTATIONS
