David Ruffin recorded this on Motown label rather than the Soul label he was on, not that long after in the early 90's he died (mentioned in the brilliant film "The Temptations"-1998), a departure from my Classic 60's Motown for a change, and was a US Gold disc! What do you think? JOHN

  • I saw David perform at small clubs in Houston after he left the Temps. Got to meet him and shared a drink with him backstage. The second time he remembered me and invited me to his dressing room again, I was surprised that this 'legend' remembered me. He was courteous, very nice and thanked me for being a fan. The best.
