so by my calculation David was about 20 yrs. old when this was recorded. He had the same fire that came to fantastic maturity, this is a wonderful treat for us Ruffin fans, Thank you so much! keep up the good work, you have a wonderful channel

@a1992aron

yeah david ruffin is my favorite singer so i've been looking for all his rare records...i just purchased the 45 with Actions Speak Louder Than Words and You Can Get What I Got from 61...i can't seem to find another one of his early songs called Knock You Out With Love though

[a1992aron]

@extinct327 wow this is very interesting but im going to look on i tunes....He had to write this because this was recorded in 60-61 and he said he wrote it in 58 wooooooooooow im just really amazed and the guy they said wrote it version didn't come out until the late 60's.

[extinct327]

@a1992aron

i'm not sure if he wrote it but there is a version that was on the b-side of mr bus driver that came out before the other version ruffin did

[a1992aron]

@extinct327 no... I never knew it was an original version...so David really did write that song? i will look around for it
