You're gonna be shocked by this Molly but I don't!  I know My Girl was a gold single but I'm not sure what other Tempts or solo songs went gold. I know David didn't have many popular singles so that narrows things down a bit. |

 Hey Common... Well the Temptations had a total of 16 Gold Singles. I'm like you I figured David had to sing lead on some of them,also Dennis had to sing on some too. This is a great question to research.

Hey Der68! You mean David did have plaques & records on the walls? I know I sound pretty stupid but this is rarely talked about. I didn't know that You're My Everything went gold too! Thanks for that. That makes 2 that we can that we can be sure about. Let go get those Motown books out! BTW, don't let those people work you death on the job! Try to do as much as you can. After all there's only 7 hrs in a day! |

Yeah, 3 days before that bid tanks too!! Would you believe she had the nerve to put a reserve on it?  I mean, does she really think her book is worth more than the starting price of $20? People are either naive or just plain crazy to want to spend ANY amount of money on that garbage!  |

Some of his plaques had been stolen from Parkside in the 80's. At least that is what he told me. I have no idea how many. Great research question Common. What about the album, "DAVID RUFFIN AT HIS BEST", is that not suppose to be the gold cuts? I always thought it was...
