Description

JIMMY RUFFIN
"WHAT BECOMES OF THE BROKENHEARTED"
TMG 577
1966
b/w
"BABY I'VE GOT IT"
At 58 years old, this Motown chart topper from Jimmy Ruffin is in excellent condition with not much sign of needle-time that I can see. Beautifully shiny vinyl and clean labels.
The B-side of this demo has an error with the small catalogue number, TMG 557B should read, TMG 577B TMG 557 relates to the Temptations single, "Get Ready" Other than the misprint on the B-side of this rare demo, the record itself is in a beautiful condition and plays through without any issues at all - no pops, skips or crackle.
An extremely popular record of its day, and still popular today, not easy to find an original demo pressing in the condition this copy is in.
A beautiful example of a classic Jimmy Ruffin demo pressing.
