THE THOUGHT OF YOUThere’s nothing like a lonely heart
When two lovers are apart
But when I’m cold and feeling blue
I’m comfort by the thought of youIt’s funny how love can show
A heart who lost the way to go
But when I’m all confused
I’m comfort by the thought of youThe thought of you
The very thought of you
Just the thought of you
Eases my mind...

Testimonials🌟 — M. L., lifelong friend and close observer of the creative process
"I’ve watched Alfred and Virgil go from entertaining us in living rooms and backyard gatherings to performing in front of packed venues. Virgil has always had this steady, thoughtful presence — even back then. What strikes me most is that, despite the bigger crowds and brighter lights, nothing’s changed about how much heart they put into every performance. It’s personal, intentional, and full of meaning — just like it’s always been."🌟 From Louise T., longtime audience member
"The moment the lights dimmed and Alfred and Company stepped on stage, it felt like I had stepped straight into the golden era of Motown. The suits, the choreography, the harmonies—it was all there, and it was real. I honestly couldn’t believe the caliber of voices and talent I was hearing. For a second, I thought I was listening to the Temptations themselves. The sound was that good. It wasn’t just nostalgia—it was excellence. I left the show smiling from ear to ear, already wondering when I could come back again."🌟 From Joini M., devoted fan of classic soul
"I’ve always been a fan of Eddie Kendricks, and when I heard Alfred sing for the first time, I was floored. His tone, control, and natural falsetto brought that same emotion and soul that Eddie was known for. I couldn’t wait for his next vocal moment—it was like a spotlight in the music just opened up and let joy pour through. Every note was heartfelt, every phrase intentional. You don’t just hear Alfred sing—you feel something deeper. It's sheer joy, plain and simple."
