The Four Tops

This book is not pretending to be a definitive history of those four life-long friends, There are no revealing secrets, no gossip. It is simply a journey through their career via their recordings, a tribute to a career that earned them the plaudits of many, as they were a group like no other. Four guys who could turn their hand to singing anything and doing it well.Sadly, one by one they vacated their microphone, with Duke Fakir being the last man standing, carrying on until he too had to call it a day, only to see his retirement counted in days rather than years.Initially, the book was going to be entitled ’AND THEN THEE WERE NONE’, but it was decided to simply leave it as ’The Four Tops’, nothing more. They don’t need a subtitle.
