You heard Dennis Edwards' "Don't Look Any Further". Dennis Edwards used to be
with The Temptations and subsequently made an album in the early 80's which
turned out the above-named hit and sold him lotsa copies.

He now tours as Dennis Edwards and The New Temptations doing the Vegas and
lounge circuits and is therefore tied up in a lawsuit with a member of the
"old" Temps,.... I forgot his name.

Just a little trivia for your weekend!!
