These sounds of Lake Erie and Lake Huron, which had enough energy to power a diesel engine and the unmistakable sound of soul music masters The Temptations and the Four Tops. David grew up watching the Gemini Twins’ (his Father’s and Eddie Kendrick’s) impeccable choreography, perfect harmony, and stylish suits become an avalanche of hits. Those were the sound tracks of his life. It set ablaze a web of fire and emotion in a small doe-eyed boy and gave birth to Ruffinism, David’s signature sound.
