Sometimes a change in name is all it takes,of course it's more fate than anything else but let's have some fun...The Roosters became-The Impressions..The Ohio Untouchables became-The Ohio Players...there was a male group called-The Supremes who got a new lead singer and changed the name to-Ruby An The Romantics..a five man group called The Elgins had little success so a name change to-The Temptations..a female group called the Primettes got a new name-The Supremes and the rest is history.
