Description:
FOR THE FIRST TIME ON DVD, 22 legendary full length performances by the hit-making Motown group. From rare local television clips to celebrated appearances on the national stage, this collection offers a stunning array of classic Motown music, with remastered sound and video--including the option to experience the Four Tops like never before, and hear unreleased a cappella mixes of such songs as "Reach Out I'll Be There," "Baby I Need Your Loving" and nine more, taken directly from their original Motown sessions reels. As an extra special bonus, newly shot interviews with Duke Fakir, Roquel Payton, Smokey Robinson and Mickey Stevenson, as well as vintage interviews with the rest of the group are highlighted throughout, documenting the oneof-a-kind story of this Motown supergroup. This DVD boasts an 80-minute documentary and more than 35 minutes of extras, including more exclusive interviews and bonus performances featuring post-Motown hits. All in digitally remastered 5.1 surround and stereo!

I absolutely loved this - having grown up during the Four Tops heyday, this brought back so many memories of the era, their music, everything. I was glued throughout. The footage is wonderful, the concerts and tv shows were really great to watch. What a privilege it must have been to be the interviewer! Abdul Duke Fakir was wonderful and so obviously deeply touched in telling his story. The accapela addition is great. If you're a fan or just want to hear a great story and listen to music at it's finest, don't miss this DVD.

Wow..what a story!..unlike most "Behind The Music" type Rock & Roll stories with battling band members, drug abuse and worse it is refreshing to hear the intimate tale of a hit group that LOVED EACH OTHER and stayed together for 40+ years until death tore them apart..Tops member DUKE FAKIR tells the story with heart and soul.
GREAT rare performances, some live and some which were originally lip synced were RE-lip synced with the amazing original MOTOWN masters instead of the thin TV audio of the day. Brilliant idea and very well executed.
Just the originally MOTOWN years are covered here and only a brief mention of their ABC DUNHILL and later MOTOWN period . i LOVE this DVD !!!!!!!

This latest installment of DVD's from UMG does not do justice to the body of work by the Four Tops. Their signature song "Just The Four of Us" is glaringly missing from this set which ends before their return to Motown. The quirky audio was not a problem on our Blue Ray Disc player, but the horribly out of synch audio/video in the Interview section was hard to watch and annoying. Changing audio setting did nothing to correct this issue. This group deserved much more TLC than what UMG ultimately released. There should be a Volume 2 to fill out their career (especially with the passing of Levi) with more care given to getting it right before pushing it out the door. Overall, this DVD is a must for any Motown fan.
