To the baddest singer to ever grace a stage, hold a microphone and totally slay a song Ali Woodson. Wood the world is sadden to know that you're no longer with us in body. Your passing has left me in a numb state of mind. There's so many memories running through my mind like the first time I saw you perform with the Tempts at Radio City Music Hall in NY, you becoming the first artists to sign with Voice Distributions, our visit to Ground Zero after 911, us shopping in Harlem for clothes, you calling me at the radio station making my dream of performing and singing The Temptations songs come true by joining the Emperors of Soul, the sound checks, the shows and so much more. Wood there's not a container large enough to hold the talent that God blessed you with. You were the deffinition of the word perfection. When you performed the fans got a great show, great singing and an ever lasting performance that stayed with them forever. Now you've gone to join your fellow Temptations Melvin, Paul, Eddie and David in heaven and I know those pearly gates are catching hell from the rush of angels running to see you guys perform. I'm going to continue taking my Love Zone listener to Ali Woodsonville, USA every chance I get by playing your music forever and keeping your spirit with me until we meet again. Thanks for your friendship.
Rest in peace my brother, rest in peace. Sunrise: September 12, 1951 Sunset: May 30, 2010

Never any voice but yours reminded me to sing while working while walking while dreaming while showing my hapiness of living trough temptations songs. The thrills you send in our hearts beating on sweet and groovy melodies as treat her like a lady, soul to soul, to be continued and all others prove that your voice was the real soul of the temptations. From above the sky be proud of what you leave in this world and when you hear me singing just trying to equal you as the show man you were you just can smile of it cause I know you keep a look on your fans.May god bless you I'm just a man with the same name as yours an eternal one in my heart repertory's songs.

Ali was one of the greatest singers of our time. I was blessed to perform a duet with him last fall, "Four Walls". I'll treasure it for my lifetime. He always made himself available to all when called upon to sing. He was a people-person! A dynamic personality and performer. Even when singing along with him, I felt like I had bought a ticket! His voice was mesmerizing! He found notes I couldn't even imagine, and then, more. Ali was a one-of-a-kind talent and, he was an actor, too! He could do it all. Everytime I think of him, I shall see his infectious smile, his cool, swagger-of-a walk, and then, hear his voice singing to the Heavens! Sing on, Ali, sing on!!! You shall forever be remembered in the gardens of my heart. May God continue to watch over Juanita and your children and comfort them.

What can we say that has not already been said about the AWESOME Ollie Woodson!!.. We had the pleasure of touring with him over the years while he was a member of The Temptations, he was such a classy man and entertainer, oh and that voice, WHAT A VOICE!!!!!, Ollie didn't live to sing, HE SANG TO LIVE, singing to him was like breathing, he just had to do it!!! We shall always carry the fondest memories of him in our hearts. Ollie is now singing on the Nightshift along with all the other greats and you gotta know there's gonna be some sweet sounds comin' down!..Respectfully. The Commodores. WAK, Clyde and J.D.

Hey Ali. We met around 15 years ago when you played in my hometown with The Tempts. I have loved your talent ever since that first time seeing you up there as the front Man in the group. It was such a joy to have you join us as guest vocalist with Tour De 4Force on their debut cd 'Quiet Moon'. It was ironic that 'Heaven Bound' would be one of your very last ever recordings too! And do you know that that song was No. 1 on the Starpoint Radio Uk Soul charts for two weeks running and the cd itself remained on the top 30 for a massive 10 weeks. It has recently re-entered the Solar Radio 'Sweet Rhythm charts' this very week too! So Rest In Peace Ollie. You were OUR Tour De 4Force.
Blessings. Jim Saphin (UK Rep) www.tourde4force.com
