In My Stride is an album by David Ruffin, released in 1977. It was his last studio album for Motown Records.
Critical reception
The Bay State Banner wrote that "even in the most Rawls-inspired copy cuts, the bluesy soul of Ruffin the man squirms out, mocking the thickly cosmetic contrivance of his Van McCoy-produced work."
