DAVID RUFFIN - ACT QUICKLY
posted by O.W.
David Ruffin: Heaven Help Us All
From David (1971 Previously Unreleased Album) (Hip-O-Select, 2004)
UPDATE: 3-5-09 - SOLD OUT... AGAIN!
This is one of those purchases you just make. Don't think, just buy it. Originally released in 2004 and limited to 3500 numbered copies, this quickly sold out. Subsequently it went for hundreds of dollars on eBay (although you can buy a digital copy of it on iTunes).
However, Hip-O-Select recently switched fulfillment houses. Lo and behold, they found 80 copies of this previously thought-to-be-sold-out album. Note: This is not a repress but is part of the original 3500 allotment which will not be repressed.
The album was intended to be released in 1971 but for reasons unknown was held back. It was given a release number and even had a couple of singles released from it. The material recorded never even appeared on future releases.
