The Greatest Singer Of All Time “The David Ruffin Story” (Documentary) 

Just an unbelievable singer. Despite all the personal issues he still left an indelible mark.

Another LEGEND that may be imitated but NEVER DUPLICATED!! INCREDIBLE VOICE

David's voice, charisma, personality and them signature glasses makes him uniquely gifted!!!!!!! He*l of a singer!

“Ain’t nobody coming to see you Otis” 😅😅😅 R.I.P. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

My whole world ended(the moment you left me) is one of my all time favorites. David Ruffin had the most distinguished voice and you hear it right away whether with The Temptations or on his own.

One of greatest if not the greatest singer of all time.

His talents will never be surpassed. There will never be another. Upon him glory and praise.

David rest in peace one and only there will never be another like him he was my favorite artist of the temtations

David Ruffin is the greatest singer I have ever heard. I agree with the title of this video.

DAVIDS vocals is legendary..as a #1 fan who lived in Detroit and grew up in Philly, I feel his soulful pain ..He is singing with God's Chior 🙏 miss you David...

No one can, than or now match the voice of David. I cried as if he was my relative. He is my relative, my brother, sing David, sing!

"Ain't nobody coming to see you, Otis!! That's one of my favorite parts of The Temptations mini series.

There may not ever be who was the greatest singer of all times, it is in the ear of the beholder like beauty is in the eye.

One of the best male vocalists of all time

Hands down greatest male singer of all time his range is unmatched til this day......

Just like always great documentary rip to one of the greatest singers he definitely left his mark .... Thanks bro❤️

You do such a great job everybody please like and thumbs up this video

David left a concert and dennis and eddie didn't want him to go. He was at a nurse places i truly niss him he was and still is the king of temptation

My favorite singer of all time

Great documentary David Ruffin one of the greatest vocalist of all time R.I.P Mr. Ruffin❤️

David Ruffin was just what the title says. Greatest singer of all times!!! Great showmanship!!! These kid of guys come around once in a life time❤

The absolute greatest singer of all time!!!! David Ruffin was a great entertainer too. He paved the way for all the greats including Michael Jackson.

Well done...great content....RIP David.

David is truly the best singer ever. He has the best catalog too..

There should be a movie made about David Ruffin!

Thank you so much love David Ruffin he definitely was a true king 👑🖤✊🏽 May God continue to rest his soul

his legend lives on! he left the best soul music here! 🎶

Thank you for this docu. Story told beautifully. I agree, one of the greatest voices to come out of the US, if not the greatest. Songs such as "Wish it would rain", "Walk away from Love", but my most favorite David Ruffin song is "A Rainy Night in Georgia". The way he sang it, you could feel the rain in a melancholic way, the dreariness of that night.

I always love videos like these that treat music legends from the 50s/60s like they’re actual humans who were doing the same kind of grimy hood shit were still doing today. I feel like u can appreciate their music more knowing it comes from a sincere place

I Can’t Stop The Rain when he was with Van McCoy is my favourite song of his. I treasure the night I saw Dave, Eddie Kendricks, and Dennis Edwards when the 3 of them got together and did a Tour. It was fantastic seeing them together singing.

I truly believe David Ruffin was the greatest Vocalist ever. Better than Micheal Jackson, Marvin Gaye, Luther Vandross, whoever! No one beats Ruffin when its comes to strictly vocals. Not dancing, or performing. Just strictly vocals he is the greatest vocalist ever!

This is so good!!! I am grateful for your work putting this together.

David Ruffin's Temptations are my favorite lineup

“You ain’t nothing without Davis Ruffin” 😂😂

Just some info u guys probably didn't know David Ruffin's first Lead with Temptations was actually You'll Lose A Precious Love. March 1964 his Best performance on any recording in my opinion.

I love all his music he made!! But WALK AWAY FROM LOVE is my number 1 song he made,it will never gets old!!! RIP DAVID RUFFIN another legend!!!

This was very very good. Great job and thank you.

In my lifetime, I have never heard anyone better than David Ruffin , His song “statue of a man ; still brings tears to my eyes, thank you so much for this post acknowledging this incredible talent.

Love the Temptations. Since 1963 I’ve listened. Now 71 but still listening to Tamla and Soul. Great video. Love from 🇬🇧

There can be only ONE.

David Ruffin remains the best thing that ever happened to the Temptations.

Wow superb video...this man epitomized soul musics voice alongside Donnie H, Bobby Womack,Otis,Eddie/Gerald Levert,Lee Fields.JB ..true true lasting voices that will stand time...real singers very very very few have this presence in there music

Very Well Done 👍🏽 Thank You 😊

David was one of the all time great soul singers, but to me Sam Cooke is #1!!!. Nobody had a better voice.

Thank you, very well said, and very much appreciated

Teddy P was my man but David was right up there....miss them times

and still the greatest singer

Well done on the bio , he was such a great talent . Definitely one of my favorite soul singers .

Awesome 👍

He was one of the best singers of this era. His soulful and emotive voice and his vocal range are what captivates you. I don't get tired of listening to him. You were in my prayers all day yesterday, 1/6/2024. RIP, David

Hey man this was good! Thanks!

Great content and research. I was moved by the background research.

Bro made a temptations documentary

Great job 👏🏿

Thanks for all putting out this stuff I love it because even with musicians we all people we struggle with our problems

Dope!!

Thanks for doing a good History of David Ruffin he is and will always be my favorite singer, it is sad to hear so much negative talk about a singer who gave us so much beautiful music, he may not have been perfect in his personal life but neither were most of the singers in that era and even today. If you don't know a person it is best to not form a negative opinion of that person based on what you hear, even though they do negative things we have no idea what drives a person to whatever they choose in life, however I really loved all the music that he and the Temptations bought to us in some real bad times as well. Prayers to all of them and their families.

When David Said " You wish you could do like me" ..........😅😅😅😅😅There is only one David Ruffin

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE DOCUMENTARIES...WE ARE ABLE TO LEARN ABOUT OUR BLACK PEOPLE..BE GOOD OR BAD...I LOVE MY PEOPLE WE ARE SO BEAUTIFUL AND TALENTED GOD BLESS YOU ALL 🙌 FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE ❤️

Nice documentary on David Ruffin.

You The Man David

my maine man the man with the glasses my idol and still the greatestest

I love this man❤

The Great David Ruffin

I met david ruffin at a concert in greenville , ms. Greatest singer i've ever known.

This is good doc, but the only place where I take issue is with the "Psychedelic Era" of the Temps. David really wasn't part of that era of the group, because it started in 1969 with the "Cloud Nine" album, which was after he left the group. Dennis was the lead by that time.

He truly might be the greatest singer of all time, but he's definitely top 5. This guy was on another level. His blood was red, white, and blue.

Very good , well researched actual facts, honesty and respect. I wish Franky Lymon and Tammi Terrell's names were pronounced properly. Good story, thanks.

He was great....Fame killed him. He had a great career outside of the Temptations. It was also sad that some of the members of the Temptations had such a tragic life

Well Done, Drugstore Films, well done...

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

So happy to know he’s from Mississippi 🤟🏾

He was the star the voice I mean nobody was coming to see Ottis we all know lol the voices Paul Eddie David and Melvin but the swag of David Ruffin is incomparable unable to be duplicated he was taken way to soon dare I say king of r&b 😊

Bless His Heart ❤️😢

David and levi studds had a voice sound like they crying when they sing Ain't Nobody come to see you Otis.

Musicians celebrities making more money than us is still human just like us keep it going fam need more content

😂 cant believe im watchn this i thot this was bout a chiraq savage singer 😂 still dope bro

When Rolling Stone magazine complied its list of the greatest singers of all time, l rejoiced when l saw that David Ruffin was included. There’s absolutely no denying that his raspy soaring tenor was special! His eerily haunting and urgent delivery singing 🎶 lead on “I Wish It Would Rain” was universally hailed as a masterpiece of undeniable rarely seen vocals. He sang heartfelt and as if His life depended on it! THERE WILL BE ANOTHER VOICE LIKE HIS IN OUR LIFETIME!!!!

One of the greatest singers ever. I was little listening to "Walk Away from Love"

Yes David was a great singer loved everything he sang.

Very good

The letter is such a underated song. Also my favorite jamerson baseline.

David Ruffin is one of the best for sure the number one is Frankie Lymon for sure

Love MJ and Teddy Pendergrass but David was good also.

David Ruffin is The Greatest Singer of All Time. Only the great Jackie Wilson comes close.

Oneofthegreastedsingerofalltimesripdavid❤

I once heard someone say that if there was ever a greater singer than David Ruffin they must've existed before humans found a way to record music.

The driver took it, who else

There has been many great singers and he was one of them. Comparing the top singers is like comparing the top musicians and it boils down to individual tastes.

If DAVID WOULD'VE WENT TO STAX RECORDS AFTER THE TEMPTATIONS I BELIEVE HE WOULD'VE HAD HUGE SUCCESS JUST LOOK AT THE SUCESS JONNIE TAYLOR HAD AT STAX WITH THE SONG WRITERS AND PRODUCERS THEY HAD I KNOW THAT WITH DAVID'S VOICE HE WOULD'VE BEEN BIG OVER THERE AT STAX.

RIP 🙏💔 Mr: Ruffin

David Ruffin voice is timeless great singer

💪🏾💯

Dennis sang but he never took David Ruffin. Place love david miss him sad he didn't get off drugs he truly needed help.

REST IN PARADISE IN PEACE DAVID RUFFIN....JOB WELL DONE 👏 GOD BLESS 🙌 🙏 YOU

DAVID RUFFIN...IRREPRESSIBLE IRREPLACEABLE...IRRESISTIBLE AND PERHAPS IRRESPONSIBLE. THINGS HAPPEN IN LIFE. I'M 74 YEARS OLD AND I'M STILL FIGHTING DEMONS.YOU JUST CAN'T GIVE IN TO THEM. EASIER SAID THAN DONE. HIS FANS SHOWED HOW MUCH THEY LOVED HIM EVEN IN DEATH AS THEY TRAVELED FROM NEAR AND AFAR. DAVID WAS OUR BELOVED TEMPTATIONS AND MOTOWN STAR. WHAT A VOICE! WHAT AN ENTERTAINER! HE GAVE US AND MOTOWN HIS ALL!!! LOVE FOREVERMORE

He was my everything😢

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️‼️

The greatest…

That's the way i feel about cha pops know 🎵
