David Ruffin WAS 'The Temptations'. Not to discredit the number of great voices that the group contained, but if there was ever a "lead voice" in that group, it was David - he carried the group in its glory years.

AMazing! Thank you for making this! His physical abilities were only half of the great singer that David was. The other half is how he sang with all his heart! The Greatest who ever lived period.
