What the hell, thanks for posting this. Love the fact that it's so insanely refreshing and not expected.

From the recently released "Hit & Run! More Motown Guys " CD on Kent out of UK.

The Temptations in the David Ruffin era

Have to wonder why it wasn't released in 1967. Maybe Motown President Berry Gordy Jr. didn't like the rhythm and tempo changes in the song?

Imho this is the best cut on the compilation. Will post others soon.

recently Sonic Temple posted a Ruby & The Romantics song and i gave it another listen and it reminded me of an obscure Soul artist from the 60,s Ruby Johnson...obscure but well known to Soul aficionados like me....best known for her heart felt ballads she recorded at Stax Records
