 Five Stars for a Four Tops collector. Levi! October 11, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
After reading the reviews for this album calling it an imitation, I was a bit confused. The album was published in Germany in 1999. As I don't know much about the laws of public domain for music in Germany, I originally thought that this album was not the Tops themselves, but a totally different group covering the songs. But when another reviewer said it was an older group of Tops, I had to pick it up. It is indeed the real Four Tops. Levi Stubbs' voice is unmistakable, and still very strong. It's very possible these are some of, if not the last recordings of Levi with the Tops (minus the live appearances on the 50th anniversary and Stardust DVDs). I'm stunned that they re-recorded all of these hits, and I'd love to know the musicians on it, and if Theo Peoples was singing background with them, as until Levi retired he was covering Lawrence Payton's parts. Either way, these tracks are some of the last documentation of one of the greatest singers I've ever heard. Definitely pick this up if you're a curious Four Tops fan, or missing Levi's voice.

I have to agree with the reviewers.. I am extremely disappointed with this CD. I love the Four Tops and was excited to get a CD with so many of the songs that I loved.. I noticed the imitation immediately after I started listening. I had to pick up the CD and take a second look because the quality was so poor. If I had of purchased this CD at a store, I would return it.

There is absolutely no indication on the cover that these are not the original recordings. This is reprehensible to not inform the buyer in advance before the money is spent.

Agree 100% with those pointing out that these are not the original recordings but only pale, disappointing imitations. These cuts appear to be made very recently by a much older set of Tops with extremely low budget instrumental and technical support...
Not The Classic Recordings! October 12, 2000
14 out of 14 found this review helpful
I can not believe that the reviewer who gave this CD 5 stars ever actually listened to this CD. I am a huge fan of the Four Tops, but these are not the original recordings of the classic songs you know and love. These re-recordings lack the joy and spark that made the original versions hits. If you are a fan of this classic group, accept no substitutes...go get the real thing (and thank me later)!
