Sunrise
from Words - The Bee Gees Podcast
In May 1980, Jimmy Ruffin released his seventh and final studio album, 'Sunrise'. This often-overlooked album consisted of compositions by Robin Gibb and Blue Weaver (with contributions from Barry, Maurice and Andy), with the pair also producing the album. 'Sunrise' is a fascinating combination of the distinct Robin Gibb lyrics, Weaver's trademark arrangements and Ruffin's motown style. When Marcy Levy's vocals and 1970s soul sounds are added in, the result is a charming and totally unique album in the Gibb catalogue. Stuart and Cristiano delve into 'Sunrise', as well as some surrounding material from Robin.Hold On To My Love - Gulymix: JIMMY RUFFIN feat.
