(CNN) -- Jimmy Ruffin, silky-voiced singer of the Motown classic "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted," died Monday in Las Vegas. He was 78.

The Mississippi-born Ruffin had a performing career that spanned 50 years, from the '60s heyday of Motown Records to the digital music era. He was an older brother of David Ruffin, a lead singer of the Temptations, who died in 1991.

I love that song! I grew up listening to Motown hits on WLS AM Chicago.
Temptations kick ass.

 

[Mr. H.]

Filled with sadness and con-fus-ion...

Sad. There was a death hoax earlier this month about Otis Williams dying but he's still with us. The last Temptation. Jimmy Ruffin sang with the Temptations but his brother David was one of the originals. Otis Williams is the only original member left.
