Biographie
The Temptations est un groupe américain de soul et rhythm and blues fondé en 1961 à Détroit dans le Michigan.
Leur répertoire comprend des « classiques », comme My Girl et Papa Was a Rollin' Stone, qui se sont classés numéro 1 des ventes aux États-Unis. Le groupe a remporté plusieurs Grammy Awards. Ils sont introduits au Rock and Roll Hall of Fame en 1989. Une étoile à leur nom est inaugurée en 1994 sur le Walk of Fame d'Hollywood.
Plusieurs membres des Temptations, comme Paul Williams, David Ruffin ou encore Dennis Edwards, sont capables d'assumer le rôle chanteur principal (lead singer), dont la voix est mise en avant. De nombreuses compositions de leur catalogue tirent parti de cette particularité, notamment au cours de la période « psychédélique » du groupe, et permettent à plusieurs chanteurs de se partager la tâche.
Le style des Temptations est également caractérisé par leurs tenues de scène et leurs chorégraphies. Ils se distinguent des autres groupes par leur élégance.
