JOB APPLICATION AND THE TEMPTATIONS
As it turned out, one of the Hotels (The Sandringham) I had wrote to, (that was Re-Opening after a Period of being Closed) had a Head Chef who used to be my Teacher/Chef at College about 3 Years earlier, a Chap by the Name of "Brian Thompson" so I had a great chance of getting the Job.
I went for the Interview, it was, as I said Re-Opening with a New Owner and a Complete Re-Furbishment, plus all new Menus etc, and we were going to have an Open Plan Kitchen, that was un-heard of back then!
It was going to be Different Working there, because it was about 3/4 Months away from Re-Opening, so I would not be Cheffing/Cooking straight away, I was going to be Helping putting the finishing touches to the Kitchen and I was going to be Helping getting the Hotel ready for the Opening!
The Interview as I remember went well, so I just had to wait for a Letter, to see if I had the Job.
As for Music around this period, in April of 1982, the Temptations got back together for the "Reunion" Album and Tour!
Included in the Line-up were:
- Dennis Edwards: vocals
- Glenn Leonard: vocals
- Richard Street: vocals
- Melvin Franklin: vocals
- Otis Williams: vocals
- Eddie Kendricks: vocals
- David Ruffin: vocals
- With help from the following:
- Rick James: vocals, producer
- Paulinho Da Costa: percussion
- Mary Jane Girls: background vocals
The Best and Biggest Hit Track on the Album by far was "Standing On The Top" Written, Produced and Performed on, by Rick James, it was Really a Rick James Track, Featuring The Temptations!
