The Four Tops
Sadly, in June of 1997, one of the Tops, Lawrence Payton, died of liver
cancer. The Four Tops had 44 years together and then there were three.
Originally, the three decided to go on and sing as "The Tops"
and to continue doing what they had started to do years ago – to
bring joy to millions through their music. Then along came Theo Peoples
(former member of The Temptations) who fit in perfectly. So once again,
there are Four Tops, still true to the soul, memory and performance of
Payton.
The Four Tops have been marveling audiences with their unique blend of
pure vocal power and unparalleled harmonies since 1954. Hits like "Baby,
I Need Your Lovin'," "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)"
and "Reach Out, I'll Be There" topped the charts and became
anthems of a generation. The Tops were a sensation abroad as well. At
a time when the U.S. charts were dominated by the Beatles and the Rolling
Stones, The Tops sat like kings at number one in England.
Later came more hits like "Ain't No Woman (Like the One I Got),"
"Keeper of The Castle," "Are You Man Enough" and "Am
I My Brothers' Keeper?"
In the early 1980's, The Four Tops recorded two albums, showcasing such
monster hits as "When She Was My Girl," "Tonight I'm Gonna
Love You All Over" and "I Believe In You and Me." Later,
they recorded "Indestructible" which garnered rave reviews.
In 1990, The Tops were inducted into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame, and
in 1997 were honored with a star on Hollywood Boulevard, adding to their
growing list of awards and accolades.
Today, The Four Tops are going strong, performing to standing room only
crowds all over the world, delighting old and new fans alike. Currently,
they perform approximately 80 corporate shows per year as well as 180
concerts, some with full symphony orchestras. Their powerful, recognizable
sweet harmonies and unforgettable voices have firmly established their
status in music history as Musical Legends!
