    Aaahhhh, that was great! I loved it! I have to admit, however, that I don't know who that was singing... he was great though...

    I recognise Duke Fakir and Ronnie McNeir but not the others... anyone know?

    Great to see. I didn't recognize Duke at first. He cut all his hair off 😁. Love these brothers. Saw them perform here in Nashville. Great performance. I hope Duke releases that book soon.

    Yes. I saw the original Four Tops back in 1975 and it was one of the best concerts. Levi is one of my most favorite male vocalists.

    The Four Tops the first live band I ever saw aged 15, skipped school saying I had a dentist appointment to get to the first performance, told Mum we has an away rugby match with school, have every album they ever released, got to know them personally working in radio, still miss Levi.

    Harold is a new name with me, I did like the personality of Theo, and I know Levi liked him as well. Must say that Harold does not look aged 55! they are still sounding good, Duke wow! many don't look like that at 62! lol

    The other two members in the current line up are Roquel Payton [[son of Lawrence) and Harold Bonhart according to Wikipedia.

    Nice but really it's just One Top and 3 others. Basically just a upmarket tribute band!
