I know I posted this recently, but I realised it was on a Supremes thread which some people might avoid for health reasons [[LOL), and it is really a must-see video!
This, a live rendition of The Four Tops' "I Can't Help Myself", was recorded by "The Motorcity All-Stars", an ensemble group made from as many ex-Motown acts as British producer Ian Levine could gather. Joe Stubbs called his brother Levi Stubbs [[lead singer of The Four Tops) and Levi came down to the studio [[the United Sound studio in Detroit) to lend his support [[and vocals) to all his fellow Motown artists. It was recorded in 1989 and released as a 12" single on Ian's Motorcity Records label [[as MOTC 6) that same year.
Quite excellently put by Ian Levine himself, it is "a wonderful, priceless moment in time, and never, ever to be repeated in history"
