The Many Faces of 

Ollie Woodson

Ollie Woodson was best known as the lead singer of Motown act The Temptations from 1984 to 1986, and from 1988 to 1996. He had first recorded with The Temptations in 1983 on their Back to Basics album, when he was invited to perform lead vocals on the album track, "Stop the World Right Here (I Wanna Get Off),"[2] filling in for an exhausted Dennis Edwards. The following year, Edwards was fired from The Temptations, and Woodson was officially welcomed on board as his replacement. Woodson began his tenure in the group on a high note when he co-wrote, co-produced, and sang lead/played keyboards on the 1984 Temptations single "Treat Her Like a Lady," which appeared on his first full album with the group, Truly for You, and was a #2 hit on the U.S. R&B charts.

He continued to compose and sing lead on other moderate hits with The Temptations throughout the mid-1980s, up until his first departure from the group in 1987. However, he would rejoin the group the following year, and remained with them up through their 1995 album, For Lovers Only.
