Whenever I need to get geared up for mundane household chores I always put on either the Four Tops, The Temptations or Marvin Gaye.Stubbs may be gone but I'm sure his music will still be helping me get through life even when I'm eighty.
I saw them in Vegas once. What a show. The sweat poured off them and they really knew how to entertain you. The emotion and heart they displayed was unbelievable. He was a giant and he will be missed.
Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong Are here to make right everything that’s wrong Holland and Holland and Lamont Dozier too Are here to make it all okay with you
One dark night he came home from the sea And put a hole in her body where no hole should be It hurt her more to see him walking out the door And though they stitched her back together they left her heart in pieces on the floor
When the world falls apart some things stay in place She takes off the Four Tops tape and puts it back in its case When the world falls apart some things stay in place Levi Stubbs’ tears run down his face . . .
--“Levi Stubbs’ Tears” (probably Billy Bragg’s best song)

Oh, so sad.
I just love the Four Tops.
Very underrated group.
Didn't I do the best I could, didn't I?
So don't you leave me
Standin' in the shadow of love
I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come
We were just mentioning him!
Feed me, Seymour!
What a great singer. He and Toots Hibbard are two of the best. The choir in heaven was just upgraded.
Trey
so classic, so timeless
He will be missed. What a singer.
Touching words from Smokey Robinson.
I highy recommend "Standing in the Shadows of Motown."
