Levi Stubbs, 1936-2008


One of my all-time favorite lead vocalists of one of my all-time favorite groups passed away yesterday. This video showcases Levi Stubbs at his best. I have so many great memories of listening to him singing this song and many others on the radio. I am sad that he passed at such a young age. Here is Brian Williams' tribute to him.

    The Four Tops represent the best of that whole era of music you could learn quickly, dance to easily, sing along with, and enjoy.
