Jimmy Ruffin
STATEMENT ON PASSING OF JIMMY RUFFIN
"Jimmy Ruffin was a phenomenal singer.
He was truly underrated because we were also fortunate to have his
brother, David, as the lead singer of the Temptations, who got so much
acclaim. Jimmy, as a solo artist, had "What Becomes of the Broken
Hearted," one of the greatest songs put out by Motown and also one of my
personal favorites. He was a wonderful human being, quiet and
unassuming, who touched many lives with his music, not just here in the
states, but overseas, as well.
Jimmy Ruffin will always be a part of the Motown legacy, and I extend my sincere condolences to his family, friends and fans."
