Eulogize me, Seymour.

FTA: Stubbs was the last remaining original member of the outfit. Renaldo 'Obie' Benson died in 2005 and Lawrence Payton passed away in 1997.

A huge FAIL on this. Duke Fakir was one of the original members, and is the last one living. Sheesh, these folks need to do some basic research.

RIP, I saw them at a "battle of the bands" concert with the Temptations in the mid-80's. and they rocked. Also very gracious to their fans after the show.

Sad sad sad. One of the truly great, inimitable voices.

I submitted this with:

'Seymore doesnt have to feed him anymore'

And yeah, it was the TWO TOPS until yesterday.

The next one? The Temptation.

I saw them in the late 80s with the Temps and then in the early
90s at Summerfest.

Great both times.

I was raised on mid-60s AM radio and haven't looked back.

Maybe subby was referring to the three dead tops.

Why am I giving that bastard the benefit of the doubt?

I submitted this article with a correct number of Tops headline.

Don't you hate it when you rush into a thread, hoping to point out the error of the headline, only to discover you were beaten hours ago?

So, does this mean we will soon be Topless?

Reach Out (I'll Be There) is one of the best songs out of Motown. Great stuff from the Four Tops.

/Out of my hometown area as well.

Did someone mention ZZ Top?

THREE???

-10 Subby; major FAIL on the fact check.
-50 Admin for green lighting this headline.
-3 for the band. There can only be 1 Top.

Gives new meaning to being lonely at the Tops.
