I came across this recently
I'm guessing that this has to be one of Levi's last public performances
I've watched it several times
It's equal measures heartbreaking, haunting, inspiring and beautiful

That's from The Four Tops 50th Anniversary special in 2004. Mary Wilson and Paul Rodgers also performed on the show.
I remember seeing this clip on this forum a few years back and it's [[still) impossible to watch this without crying. Thanks for sharing Optimal Saint [[and remembering the Mighty Levi Stubbs on the Anniversary of his passing).
This was his last public performance in 2004. Later that year he had the stroke and heart attack. A year later we lost Renaldo "Obie" Benson on July 1, 2005 the same day that Luther Vandross passed.
Some had believed that this was Levi last time singing here:
I love him more than ever. Thanks for sharing , tough to watch , though Aretha handled it so well.
That performance was just as you described. Somehow Levi sounded better than many of today's "singers." Thank you for sharing. I hope I can find the entire special since I missed it.
A DVD I watch over & over again, and I never fail to shed some tears! as this point, as other have said there was something special when Aretha & Levi were together, two very special & talented genuine people.
WONDERFUL

I just want to confirm that this is the correct dvd. There's only one left. From The Heart: The Four Tops - 50th Anniversary Concert, 2006
Thanks!
