David Ruffin is an album by David Ruffin.

After his planned album David was not released by Motown, as David Ruffin his record company by indiscipline (drugs, failure to meet deadlines ) always angry, was published in 1973, three years after its predecessor, David Ruffin 's third solo album. This time the album, unlike his predecessors, produced by one person: Bobby Miller, who also composed the majority of the songs.

The result however is a varied album, whose centerpiece is the Gamble & Huff - Composition I Miss You, Part I. The inclusion of this title is likely to be one of the artistic highlights in Ruffins career. The rest of the album ranges from ballads ( Common Man or the Isaac Hayes Cover (If Loving You Is Wrong ) I Do not Wanna Be Right ), early - 1970s radio ( Blood Donors Needed (Give All You Can ) ) and a light " Easy Listening 1960 " tendency ( There Will Always Be Another song To Sing ). It is worth mentioning that David Ruffin contains with A Day In The Life Of A Working Man one of the rare original compositions (in this case in collaboration with Bobby Miller) Ruffins.
