1986 The Temptations VS Four Tops

[@jamescarter5042]

The four tops and the the temptations defined the motown sound

[@bettafitter]

God Bless Levi, best voice ever.

[@bettafitter]

Supercool, superstars, super talented, Superstars forever, Motown will never ever die.😊😊😊😊

[@marciaallsbrook2335]

We don't have music or showmen like this anymore!! My kind of music!! 🎶

[@susanradford5419]

We need this kind of music to lift our spirits x

[@ATouchOfKlass]

Agreed

[@robdavis4527]

I really can't listen to modern music , it might be ok but I'm an old bastard

[@jeannetteramsey8347]

I so agree. The music today is mostly crap

[@jeannetteramsey8347]

Who are the white guys on the stage? I only recognize Fabian.

[@gregbegendorf]

everyone on that stage has talent but it just goes to show you that nothing can be compared to the sound of Motown!!!!

[@karenstrycharz1499]

How true!! “Grew up on MOTOWN & LISTEN TO IT NOW!” Nothing like the “MOTOWN SOUND” both back then & “NOW!” Two best groups of all time & seen them in concert many times!

[@davidduxbury4919]

Although I like Motown I love blues music, nothing better

[@mariederice1260]

True that!

[@brenltrail]

When I was growing up as a girl this is what we called Motown up north it's still popular and we all still love it Motown

[@snowbunner]

Levi Stubbs of the FourTops, best singer of all time.

[@barberworld011]

Must have never heard of Luther Vandross

[@olschoolTonyCarter]

@@barberworld011 Hmm must've never heard of Eddie Levert.

[@Pop3395]

Marvin Junior of the Dell's was the best singer.

[@Kingzayso]

No. David Ruffin

[@anthonylaw4992]

Ali Woodson.....hands down

[@kennycadger5529]

Nine of the best singers of the 1960s, the best decade ever to have been a teenager.

[@tonypilcher5773]

Gotta be a draw. You can't beat this music. Thank you for the memories.

[@nancygranger6620]

Hands down the four tops and temptations, especially the great and best voice ever, Levi Stubbs! So handsome also!

[@edwinrodeo]

Some of the best music in my lifetime...

[@sandraklein2651]

Now this is what I call music! Brings back the greatest memories. Love these guys!!!!💋💋💋💕🇺🇸

[@janetvinson9320]

This was when music was music oh my God I'm 70 but I remember when I fell in love with the Four Tops and The Temptations yes

[@murrygandy6546]

Both were the best!

[@adcolt54]

I'm also 70 and grew up on Motown. It was a bad time for me in the 60s and 70s but just listening to the Temptations and The Four Tops made me feel good. Btw, I'm a white guy so race had nothing to do with the music. Talent is talent. They were the best and compare to the music now, they still are the best.

[@rondellthreadgate8092]

Levi had a fabulous voice , gorgeous man, I loved Melvin too

[@karenstrycharz1499]

Me too! Loved them “all!” All extraordinary men & musicians!

What I love is here its 1986 and they still wear matching suits, so they still look classy.

[@nettietillman6986]

I miss those days we had so much fun

[@remiremi3788]

I get goose bumps when I see the Tempts with the Tops, love them and miss them soooo much!

[@karenstrycharz1499]

Me too! I couldn’t agree with you more! Miss them all ( those whom have passed over!) but best music from these two amazing groups.,”EVER!” Sooooo miss them all!

[@marthawilson4201]

Grew up with them listening to them…great musicians forever ❤

[@r.burtnett6995]

GREAT talent and songs. Nothing like today's stuff. Truly blessed with amazing MEMORIES from days gone by ❤❤❤❤❤

[@jwibbie]

You're right. Today's music is somewhat forgettable. But the music of the 60's will live forever.

[@sweetlatina53]

Two of the greatest groups temptations and four tops together they are both so amazing one thing I will say that they left there names and there legacies that will live forever and ever threw young and old there singing talents just so amazing thanks the families for sharing them with us, may all those angels souls rips 🎤💐🥀🌹🌼🌸🌷🎤🥁

[@tonypilcher5773]

Well said.

[@sweetlatina53]

Thank you so much😊

[@andrerone8208]

Two of the finest groups to ever come out back in the time when music was good and life was even sweeter the seventies was a good time for me and grown up listening to these two groups was enough for me and it's great to see them performing together not a competition to see who's better who's best but these two are awesome together

What would have been interesting was if Johnny Rivers had been one of the other three since he covered several Motown songs, including the Tops’ “Baby I need your loving.”

Soooo many great singers from that era that guess it was hard to pick! I adored Johnny Rivers too but Paul Anka & Jan & Dean were the same era. Nothing like Temptations & Four Toos (Motown Sound!”)!
