@@uncoverthetruth8365 Otis messed up for firing Ruff. If he never fired him, Eddy would have still been there and Paul would probably still be alive. Just my opinion. Ruff was one of the best to ever grace that stage.
@@uncoverthetruth8365 that’s what Ruff special. Everything he sang, he experienced. I’ve always said Ruff is vocally bleeding out on the mic, EVERY song he sang, dude gave a little more of his soul away.
First time I've seen the full video and better sound quality...G.O.A.T. We all know about the drugs and ego tripping of David Ruffin, but when I listen, its a celebration of his greatness. Best riffs and dexterity, rivaling Ray Charles before him. Timeless sound...band is pretty good too!
90s baby here. It’s David Ruffin for me and the 14 second note he hit that came straight from heaven. This man voice was so beautiful only God’s work could make him.
So you weren't born when he passed. I was 12 years old when he passed. He is truly missed. I actually dated his grandnephew in high school in the 90s..
I love this man and his voice! What a gift! I was about a year old then, but I've been loving him and the Temps since I was a kid. If I had been old enough, I would have snatched him up.
He created everything… runs, birds , there’s no musical genius like Mr. David Ruffin ( Rest in Heaven) I can listen to this song all day… why do they treat the Best Gifts any kind of way, what’s wrong with people, a blind could hear this man soulful excellent delivery… Creative Musical Genius… He knew what He was & He was a whole instrument ( The VOICE)! The Bird in Harmony) !! I believe He was preaching while he was sanging through his music… I’m trying to tell you,,, Mr. David Ruffin Commanded the Room!!👑❤️King David Ruffin 👑❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It's really something to see someone that was on top of the Soul music world during his time with the Tempts, and to see him doing something so small-time, so poorly produced and recorded. It looks like he's on stage at a Jr. High School. He really learned his lesson, unfortunately. Both he and Eddie destroyed their careers when they left the Tempts.
😢One of the greatest sadness I felt was when I learned that David Ruffin's beautiful voice was silenced by the damned drug dealers and their damned narcotic substances. 😕😢
Ruff' you need E.K and the fellas backin' you up here. That Classic Five magic would have lifted this great classic to a whole other level. Your voice is sparkling as ever here but it needs your boys.
