BIOGRPAHY

They were one of Motown's ridiculously deep bench of vocal groups, but The Four Tops stood out for a few reasons: their use as a template for a more dramatic, orchestral version of the classic Motown "Sound of Young America," the astonishing basso profundo of Levi Stubbs, half-growl and half-shout all at once, and their simple longevity, staying together in their original lineup even longer than the Rolling Stones or Kinks could

The Four Tops' best known songs:

"I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)"
"Reach Out I'll Be There"
