    RIP Duke. The last of the four tops. Sad day for music. Evelyn Thomas was just the icing on the cake

      At the early advent of synths, they were played by talented musicians. Nowadays they are sometimes used to cover up a lack of musical skills, or used to play nursery rhyme type melodies

    For the newer commenters here, "mosogotam" aka John, passed away from Covid19 last spring - he has many many great extended versions on his channel - what a fantastic undertaking he did to provide these great versions of Motown songs

      No way ! I was totally unaware. I followed John from way back in the days when he was PtownMotown. He even did a couple of his special mixes for me. Called him up on his radio show once from here in London UK and he was overwhelmed. I`m really gutted to read this sad sad news. He has left a great legacy and was a great ambassador for TM as well as being an encyclopaedia of Motown knowledge not to mention an all round lovely fella. RIP John Perrone, thank you for some great memories my friend.

    I had the great honour and privilege of meeting the Four Tops in person in their dressing room at the Fiesta Cabaret Club in Sheffield (UK) in 1972. They were all true gentlemen and Levi Stubbs Jnr has such a unique voice. No wonder they were so popular in the 60's and 70's.
    This is a great mix. Thanks for posting ir brings back such wonderful memories
