Introduction Of Band & Group |
— Alright there: Once again. |
I’d like to say good evening to every body. |
My brothers are gonna go back and ah., refresh |
themselves, so this is a convenient time to introduce you to our most wonderful musicians. |
On bass guitar, let’s here it for Eugene Woody Smith Alright! |
Hmm. |
hm. |
ym. |
What did I tell you. |
Ha ha Hm hm hm This handsome young man here we call him the Tom Jones |
of the Temptations Organization. |
On lead guitar. |
Bill Neale! |
Alright Bill. |
Now that was soulful. |
Alright' |
On the drums, the very rythmic, Aaron Smith. |
Alright Aaron! |
He really makes you feel like dancin'. |
Now Aaron is no relationship to Bill, and Bill is no relationship to Eugene |
— I can see that |
Yeah. |
I think it is rather obvious. |
But whenever the |
Temptations need rythm. |
we always send for our Smith Brothers. |
Right |
Now that’s right, that’s right |
Now. |
the young man with whom I was just speaking, he really needs no introduction because as many of you know |
we’ve learned so much from him in the past years, words |
are actually inadequate. |
I’m speaking of the Temptations' |
own Cornelius Grant, and the Orchestra! |
Go now take a bow. |
Now seeing as how I’ve introduced you to everybody else, |
it is only proper and fitting that we introduce ourselves to to you by name and Astrologically. |
Hey fellows! |
