With Otis Williams

Liz chats to Otis Williams, founding member of The Temptations, plus she plays themed tune suggestions and chats to a listener about their favourite album in All Killer No Filler.

Liz chats to founding member of The Temptations, Otis Williams. Known as Big Daddy, he's been singing with the band since 1960 and is the only surviving founding member.
The group formed as a 5 piece in 1960 and are best known for their huge success with Motown Records in the 60s and 70s. They're one of the most successful acts of all time. They were the first Motown recording act to win a Grammy Award and in 2013 received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.

Liz also gives listeners the chance to show-off their musical knowledge with themed tune suggestions and chats to a listener about their favourite album in All Killer No Filler, which this week comes from Van Morrison.
