David Ruffin's shelved 1971 solo album later titled David.

The Temps were always the most dynamic when he was on lead and I've always wanted to check this out but I 've never had. So was Motown wrong ffor not letting this see the light of day or was Barry Gordy a genius that kept the crap from the public?

Well, if my VH1 "Movies that Rock" knowledge is correct, by the time this came out he was well on his way to that MASSIVE coke/booze/womanizing addiction.

Could be good but even if it isn't I'm sure it's a fantastic train wreck.

A complete ego maniac.
