When the Jimmy Ruffin anthology was being compiled, there was not enough space for the complete recordings. It was decided that previously unreleased tracks should be included at the expense of some material that was freely available - probably the right decision.

Perhaps one day the [[Jean Terrell) Supremes version will receive an official release.
What do you reckon the better title for a song is - "On the Avenue" or "In the Neighbourhood"?
Some great deep cuts I've never heard before. Looks like I'll be scouring Itunes and Ebay this week for these Ruffin goodies!
Thanks everybody!!!!! Have a WONDERFUL HOLIDAY!!!! See you next week!!!!
Never played This Guy's In Love With You!
You didn't ASK me....[[*grin)Quote:

Rod Stewart learned of Jimmy's death in Las Vegas, where he was doing a show, his spokesperson said in a statement emailed to The Associated Press. "RIP, Jimmy. Heaven has never sounded so sweet," Stewart said. - ABC News
Mark...thanks for posting this! I've never been a fan of Rod Stewart, but his thoughtful gesture changes that a bit!Quote:
