Four Tops - Reach Out Still Waters Run Deep
Review by Bruno Terto
The Four Tops' album Reach Out Still Waters Run Deep is a soulful masterpiece that showcases the group's exceptional talent and versatility. Released in 1970, the album features a mix of upbeat and slow ballads that are sure to captivate any listener.
The album opens with the classic hit "Reach Out, I'll Be There," which remains a timeless anthem of love and support. The group's harmonies are tight and powerful, and the instrumentation is flawless. The album also features a cover of "You Keep Running Away," which shows off the Four Tops' ability to infuse their own style into a song.
The slower songs on the album, such as "Still Water (Love)" and "L.A. (My Town)," are equally impressive. The group's vocals are filled with raw emotion and passion, and the lyrics are heartfelt and relatable.
