Obituary: Singer Dennis Edwards, 74, has died. He was lead singer for the Temptations from 1968 to 1977.
His family told CBS News that he died in Chicago, two days before he would have turned 75. According to The Associated Press, his booking agent, Rosiland Riche Roberts, said that Edwards died after a long illness._____
Edwards replaced David Ruffin as lead vocalist of The Temptations in 1968. He brought soulful lead vocals to the band's psychedelic, funk, and disco era of the late 1960s and 1970s. The group's song lyrics also shifted during this era to address social issues. Hits during that time included "Cloud Nine," "I Can't Get Next to You," "Ball of Confusion (That's What the World is Today)," and "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone."
Fact number 6: Dennis Davern is a money-grubbing sleazeball who has milked the Natalie Wood tragedy for years knowing full well Robert Wagner and Christopher Walken, being public figures, can't really sue for libel.
