"He Who Picks The Rose" by Jimmy Ruffin

Jimmy Ruffin had something in common with his brother David Ruffin: both scored two Top 10 hits. Jimmy's were "What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted" (#7 in 1966) and "Hold On To My Love" (#10 in 1980). The latter was his final chart appearance. In-between, Ruffin had another notable hit when "I've Passed This Way Before" landed at #17.

"He Who Picks The Rose" never saw any chart action, but had the makings of another soul classic. Jimmy Ruffin passed away in 2014 at age 78.
