Me'n Rock'n Roll Are Here To Stay

Released

Mercurial ex-Temptations lead singer Ruffin put out this Norman Whitfield produced and written album on Motown in 1974. It was his fourth album and not particularly successful at the time but it’s well worth a listen. Ruffin was a wonderful singer with an unmistakable soulful rasp and Whitfield provides a series of classic psychedelic soul and proto-disco tracks for him, which Ruffin makes the most of. There’s plenty of classic Whitfield production touches including sound effects, funky clavinet, the ubiquitous wah wah guitar and adventurous orchestration.
