A lot greater than you'd expect – like most of The Four Tops' excellent work on ABC.

One of the hardest, rawest Four Tops album on 60s Motown – a unique live session, recorded at the Roostertail Nightclub in Detroit – with a sound that shows that the Tops could maybe shine even more away from the studio!

Why did Motown ever let the Four Tops get away?
