Ben Franklin

	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Melvin Franklin
		Melvin Franklin (David Melvin English) (October 12, 1942 – February 23, 1995) was an American bass singer, best known for his role as a member of Motown singing group The Temptations from 1961 to 1994.
		Franklin was usually called upon to deliver ad-libs, harmony vocals, and, during the psychedelic soul era, notable sections of the main verses.
		Franklin's style owes much to the example of Defoe and Addison and Steele; his satiric practice--especially his mastery of the creation of diverse personae and, at times, his use of irony--reflects his familiarity with Swift's satire, even though Franklin's effects are very different.

		Melvin would be an integral part of The Temptations, he anchored the group's sound with his rumbling basso profundo, a hallmark of the group's sound, and his rendition of "old Man River" from the Musical "showboat" would always be a highlight of The Temptations concerts.
		Melvin Franklin could do just that, show after show, and he was proud to be a member of The Temptations.
		During a tour of England in 1994, Melvin used an oxygen tank backstage, and had to be taken to and from the stage in a wheelchair.

		Franklin's abandonment of Puritanism in favor of the enlightenment's rationalism reflects a central shift in American society in the eighteenth century.
		Franklin's participation in the growing confidence of the eighteenth century that humanity could, through personal effort and social reform, analyze and deal with social problems reveals the optimism and self-confidence of his age, as do his scientific achievements.
		Franklin's style owes much to the example of Defoe and Addison and Steele; his satiric practice--especially his mastery of the creation of diverse personae and, at times, his use of irony--reflects his familiarity with Swift's satire, even though Franklin's effects are very different.

		Franklin received six days credit time towards this sentence for time he served in jail; he did not receive credit for the time he spent on home detention.
		Franklin raises for our consideration the sole issue of whether the trial court erred in not granting him credit for at least some portion of the time he served on home detention.
		Today, if Franklin were serving time on home detention as part of a community corrections program, he would not be eligible for credit time.

		Moreover, their story is a long, episodic one of perseverance and dedication that extends from their origins in 1961 to the present day.
		The Temptations were initially formed from two Detroit-based vocal harmony groups: the Primes (a trio of relocated Alabamans that included Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams) and the Distants (a quintet whose members included Otis Williams, Melvin Franklin and Elbridge Bryant).
		Still, the Temptations had trouble establishing themselves in the beginning, and by the end of 1963 - much like the early story of the Supremes - they had only a string of non-charting singles to their credit.
