Christmas Here with You is an unusually bombastic affair that even a diehard Tops fan will have trouble tuning into. Entirely overproduced and disappointedly uninspired through almost 12 cuts, the disc is rich in cliche but poor in imagination. Even select cameos from Aretha Franklin, who rises to the occasion only to oversing her parts, can't rescue the effort. Although the string-driven arrangement of "Silent Night" proves engaging and things do pick up a bit halfway through, most folks will wonder what happened to the Motown magic that gave us all those good times. --Martin Keller

 Holiday Music for a family gathering December 11, 2008
This CD is not a commercial project and does not contain radio cuts, what it does contain is slightly over the top Holday cheer. It sounds like a family gathering, Christmas choir music. It's big, it's infectious and full of the holiday spirit but most of all it is full of love from some dynamic men who have passed on. Buy it for what it is a family Christmas Special.
 Holiday Hi light !! December 5, 2006

I LOVE this CD. After, Charlie Brown, it's the first CD I reach for to get my holiday hum on. The rendition of Little Drummer Boy , alone, is worth the price of the CD. It is a nice up tempo rendition with a fabulous ending ( the horns are outstanding ! ).I put it on blast, every time I play it. The Night Before Christmas, Christmas Delight and Christmas Here wih You are also very nicely done. I've just purchased 6 more copies for holiday giving.
This is great!!! August 11, 2003
This is a must have for any Four Tops fan. The way they harmonize sounds great. Hearing Levi makes reaching some of those high notes is impressive. They all sound great. This is a great buy.
Joyous songs to match the season January 29, 2003
I love this CD. There are some unusual arrangements (The Little Drummer Boy) and best of all, the Christmas Song, which has always been linked to Nat King Cole in my family - in my opinion, it's even better by Levi Stubbs. I even gave this away to friends as presents for Christmas.
A Perfect Christmas Feeling December 11, 2002

When I think of Christmas I think of: the happiness, togetherness, & joy of the season. This CD really captures the aspect of the season not to mention three of the songs (track# 1,8,10) were original and written by the Gentlemen of Pop. And a lot of the rest were edited or added to. The harmonies of Levi, Duke, Obie, and Lawrence sound so graceful. And the special guest Aretha Franklin adds the perfect touch to the mixture. We were all so lucky that the Tops & Aretha blessed us with their voices on this CD. This is one of my favorite CD's because of the harmony it brings. When I hear it I wanna go sit by the fireplace and drink a hot liquid. I'm a lifelong Four Tops fan and always will be and I think this CD would be a great buy and addition to anyone's Christmas collection.
