Glenn Leonard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glenn Carl Leonard (born June 11, 1947 in Washington, D.C.) is an American R&B and soul singer best remembered for serving as the first tenor/secondary lead singer of the legendary Motown quintet The Temptations from 1975 to 1983.
Leonard recorded with the groups the Chancellors, Instant Groove and True Reflection before he was asked to replace ousted Temptations member Damon Harris in 1975 by Otis Williams. Leonard joined the group just before they recorded the hit "Shakey Ground". Leonard's most notable Temptations leads on Temptations records were on the 1980 single, "Power", and on their version of the Christmas classic, "Silent Night" from their 1980 Christmas album. He was replaced by Ron Tyson in 1983.
Leonard currently is part of the splinter Temptations group, The Temptations Experience.
