Trivia
In the early part of his tenure with The Temptations, his performances were often interrupted by David Ruffin, whom Edwards replaced. Ruffin would show up at their concerts and, whenever they started to sing one of the songs Ruffin himself had sang lead on, Ruffin would jump onto the stage, grab the microphone away from Edwards and start singing, much to Edwards embarrassment and to the delight of the fans. To his credit, Edwards simply sang along with Ruffin. This eventually stopped after the Temptations hired more guards to keep Ruffin from entering their concerts.
