About The Four Tops - 50th Anniversary Anthology

The Four Tops' musical passion captures your ear. Their overflowing joy catches your eye. Their four souls touch yours and you succumb. You smile broadly, sing along, sway your hips and arms from side to side, and you dance that "Four Tops boogaloo" forever. It's been 50 years since Renaldo (Obie) Benson, Abdul (Duke) Fakir, Lawrence Payton and Levi Stubbs first sang together at a weekend party in Detroit's North End in 1954. The party's host asked the four, each from a different group, to sing for the gathering. They liked the results and decided to make things permanent.

This CD brings back so many memories. I have listened to this more than once since my purchase and there are a few songs that I like to hear over and over! This is one of the best collections I have seen in quite some time. If you are a Four Tops fan, then this is the one to buy! March 24, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteExcellent CollectionQuote
Excellent collection of the Four Tops. Raises the bar for future anthology collections. This tops my list as one of favorite albums! January 19, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteA Quality CompilationQuote
Even today, the Four Tops are one of the most recognizable groups. They've certainly come a long way since they were called the Four Aims in the mid-1950s. The problem comes when you are deciding which album to buy. If you're looking for a collection with all of their hits, this is the one. I purchased this album and was pleasantly surprised to listen to the string of hits included, and even the lesser-known songs.

Many compilations exist, but I doubt you'll find one that encompasses any more without springing for a box set. The quality of the sound in this release is amazing. This should definitely be the standard for future anthologies and compilations. This collection chronicles their entire career (minus their Christmas album) and has every hit you could ask for. Do yourself a favor and buy it today. You won't regret it. March 19, 2007

rating: 3 Quote1st cd was greatQuote
The 1st cd was great to listen to. Brought back memories. The 2nd cd had songs on it that I never heard and was probably a waste. Would not recommend purchasing. March 16, 2007

I really enjoy this CD because it has so many of the earlier hits. March 9, 2007
