Dennis Edwards, TEMPTATIONS Lead Singer, Dead At 74.




Dennis Edwards, the lead singer of Motown legends The Temptations, has died at age 74.

Edwards, a native of Detroit, died in Chicago, according to his family. He would have turned 75 on Saturday.


Edwards sang Grammy-winning songs for the Motown icons like "Papa was a Rollin' Stone" and "Cloud Nine" ... along with hits like "Ball of Confusion" and "I Can't Get Next to You."

 Dennis Edwards was in an 'Off & On' kind of relationship with the group in the late '70s and '80s....

Though he was fired from the Temptations in 1977 just before the group left Motown Records, he returned in 1980 when they left Atlantic Records to return to Motown.

 He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 with The Temptations.

Edwards was married to Ruth Pointer, of the vocal group The Pointer Sisters, from 1976 to 1977, and the two had a daughter, Issa Pointer, who later joined her mother’s group.

Rest  in peace.
