Rating: Summary: absolutely love it. Review: As a long time 4tops fan, who has seen them live several times, I was really looking forward to getting this dvd, and I wasn't disappointed.They give a fabulous, and exciting performance. The sound, and picture are great, and the orchestra is terrific too. If you like the 4tops, don't miss this dvd. We're very lucky to have this live performance available to us.
Rating: Summary: WHAT A SHOW! Review: As a long time Motown fan, I naturally jumped at the chance to capture the Four Tops on DVD. Turns out, this is their last performance with all four original members! And man, what a show! They include all their classic hits, (my favorite, Ain't No Woman Like The One I Got) along with some great covers, including I've Got You Under My Skin and a great Rolling Stones medley. This show really captures the diverse styles that these guys have always been able to pull off. And to top it all off, the picture and sound is superb! It's like having the Four Tops in my living room.
Rating: Summary: remark to j miles Review: i can attest that this is the original 4 tops before a founding member passed on could there be a chance that they dont sound the same cause its 40 years since they formed and hit big certain people should not reviews if they dont know history or content. stick to the record era
Rating: Summary: Poor sound quality Review: I got this DVD and was very dissapointed with the quality of sound on the 5.1 surround sound. My front side speakers and back speakers have no sound to speak of so the centre speaker does all the work. The video is of average quality but a good sound package would have really made the difference.
Rating: Summary: they were such a unique group Review: i have watched this dvd a lot.these guys were such a unique group of all times and you could see in this that although age and poor health was agaist their will,still their perfomance was so great.to all those people who are complaining about this show i suggest you go to Ebay and find out if they still got TEMPS&TOPS or all the SOULTRAIN VOLUMES FROM 1 TO 20 and there you will catch the FOUR TOPS at their best.otherwise they have tried their best in this dvd and is watchable quality.
Rating: Summary: Four Tops 40th Anniversary Special Review: If my wife and I had not loaded the player ourselves, we would not have recognized this group as the Four Tops. We assumed after listening to this performance that it wasn't the original group or at least not the original lead vocal. Checking again, we couldn't actually verify if this was the original group or not, however, they are represented as "The Four Tops". This performance simply does not represent the golden sound of the original group....Extremely disappointing. If you're into this group, buy some of their older releases on CD and save your money on this DVD.

Rating: Summary: Absolutely Magic ! Review: The only footage I had seen of the Four Tops was for Motown 25 where they shared the stage and outclassed each other with the legendary Temptations. But this one is absolutely Magic and a must for all Motown Music fans. Once again it shows how timeless the four tops are. They are in a class of their own and on top of the act; great pity Lawrence Payton has moved on to the place beyond. "There will always be the Four tops"
Rating: Summary: THE ONE AND ONLY FOUR TOPS! Review: There can only ever be ONE - TRUE - FOUR TOPS and this is LEVI - LAWRENCE - DUKE & OBIE - 2004 is their 50th Anniversary together sadly Lawrence left just after this was recorded. LEVI STUBBS JR is at his Best with the opener MCARTHUR PARK and my all time favourite track ASK THE LONELY! Okay they may not be quite the same as in the 60's when they signed with MOTOWN or 1954 when they first formed as THE FOUR TOPS - but they still sound so good! and true performers. Currently LEVI is not performing with the Group, so this keeps us going with the MEMORIES - that NO ONE can ever take away. THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE - FOUR TOPS Thanks Guys! - John
