_________________________________________________________________A Tribute to Ray Ruff,
Producer and promoter Ray Ruff was instrumental in grooming the careers of countless Nashville stars--not bad for a failed Buddy Holly knock-off. Born Marvin Ray Ruffin in Amarillo, Texas in 1938, he was 18 when he joined the staff of producer Norman Petty's Clovis, New Mexico recording studio, the site where Holly recorded his early hits. After Holly's tragic death, Petty groomed Ruff as the singers replacement and assembled a backing band dubbed the Checkmates. Between 1959 and 1963 Ruff cut some two dozen Petty-produced sides and even often worn Hollys trademark horn rimmed glasses in the studio. The end result was a pale imitation at best and singles including I Need Someone/ Love Made a Fool of You/ and My Gift To You, went nowhere. Ruff however, learned a thing or two about the (music) industry from Petty, and after a brief tenure with the Lin Lable, where he cut the 1964 novelty tune "Beatle Maniacs" Ruff founded his own short lived Storme lable on which he issued his final headling effort Ummm Oh Yeah" he then relocated to Los Angles and signed with Dot Records"A&R staff Widley credited as the father of modern music promotion thanks to his ingenious, headline-grabbing stunts Ruff eventually took over the lable's A&R department. He also moved into production and worked with such artists as, Glen Campbell, Lesley Gore, Brian Hyland, and the Blue Things.
****************************************************************
In 1970, MGM Records president Mike Curb wooed Ruff away from Dot to head his own MGM affiliate, Oak Records. At Oak, he also resumed his recording career and teamed with singer/songwriter Val Stoecklien to create a Biblical rock opra titled Truth of Truths, Ruff took a leave of absense in 1972 to mount an unsuccessful run at the U.S. House of Representive, but returned to music in 1974 and began work on Happy Birthday U.S.A., a Bicentennial-inspired album commissioned by Congree and the National Endowment for the Arts, During production on the project, Ruff met singer Susie Allanson, of whom he later became manger and husband. In 1977 Ruff and Curb began Curb Records, the country lable where Ruff enjoyed his greatest success. To promote Debby Boones "You Light Up My Life" he arranged for security trucks to deliver copies of the single to radio stations across the country and galvanized a record that not only spent ten weeks atop the Billboard pop charts, but became one of the signature songs of the decade. Through Curb's affilliation with the Warner and Capitol families, he worked with many of the biggest names in Nashville, including Kenny Rogers/ Hank Williams jr./ Merle Haggard/ and George Strait, in addition Ruff launched the careers of artists such as "Dwight Yoakam"/ Juice Newton, Reba McEntire and Kathy Mattea, While overseeing a resurrected Oak Lable, Ruff suffered congestive heart failure and pulmonary epema and died at his home in Saugus California on Sept.15, 2005 --- Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide.
****************************************************************
Ray Ruff was a personal and dear friend of mine for 17 years,Ray produced so many of my songs, and took them to a level that was just hevenly,he introduced me to the top record lable people to learn what he did through out his career, he also directed me in the music industry to be able to understand what it takes to make it as a performing artist, producer,singer/songwriter, in the music industry. He felt my passion for my original music, and dedication to write, record, and perform in front of 1000's of fans across this great country and abroad, I would tell him, he got the name Ruff, for when he was working with me he was "Ruff"only to push me in area's of growth to achive what now has become even larger than i could possible dream, only by the grace of the Lord.
Words cannot describe what he has done for me. I miss you oh so much,
God Bless You My Brother. Robert Vaughn Peace Soldier
