David Ruffin was a prominent American soul singer known for his time as one of the lead vocalists of the Temptations during their “Classic Five” era. He was the prominent voice behind hits such as “My Girl” and “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg.” Ruffin later achieved success as a solo artist with chart-topping singles like “My Whole World Ended (The Moment You Left Me)” and “Walk Away from Love.” His distinct raspy and emotive tenor vocals led to him being hailed as one of the greatest singers in history by Rolling Stone magazine. Ruffin was honored with induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989.
