Four Tops - Reach Out, I'll Be There (Original Stereo)

[jbrian80]

When the Rock and Roll music died in late 50's...

In early 60's the Motown pioneered the next chapter of musical evolution that leads to the Beatles and Led Zeppelin!

KUDOS to the Motown artist, thank you for bringing the great stuff.

[AlexanderJM0530]

@Oweneden, I grew up in Pennsylvania, in the good old coal region or anthracite area! When 45 records were a quarter and vinyl albums were $3.99! Loool! Those were the days looool! Some times in our local Woolworth store they would have a whole table full of 45 records for sale like 10 for 50 cents, they were the juke box rejects, they had the hole in them form the juke box loool! But some of those records were fantastic songs loool! I was very lucky to grow up in those days and times!

a very sad song

[marsk4angel]

This is a very nice song, all of it, the ritm, the intersounds, i was a girl when i heard this for the first time, reach out...ohhm, i so wished someone would say that to me........yep i was born in 1951

[Nocaro]

@SeanKaluarachchi Do me a favor...send me a link to the stereo version on YouTube that you think is the "original". Don't send a link to a mono version. Thanks.

[SeanKaluarachchi]

@Nocaro Man I literally can't find it it's just I have it on a few Motown classics albums on which it sounds totally different without this echo and in stereo. Regardless, this song always sounds amazing.

[SeanKaluarachchi]

@Nocaro Lol folks calm down, the version I have on 'Motown Classics' is totally different, that's all I'm saying. It's not the one I know.

[mangledinal]

@SeanKaluarachchi OMG, go away. Where were you in the 60s? I have a few of their albums and 45s from the 60s and this sounds better. MAYBE it's your sound system?

[SeanKaluarachchi]

@mangledinal I was but a sperm cell. Calm down fella, I just have a different version on a compilation that has a lot less echo. I never said I didn't like the echo!

[mangledinal]

@SeanKaluarachchi Fella? ROFL No. No. Old lady! I am calm now. And I am sooo glad you like this. It is one of my favorites--echo or no echo. I apologize, though, if I was rude to you. Listen to my playlist sometime: Soul Music I Love!!! from that era of the 60s.

Not all of my favorites--yet--but a start. Ok, 60s (70s) Sperm?

[SeanKaluarachchi]

@mangledinal By sperm I meant I wasn't born in the 60s lol. Yeah I adore soul music, especially Motown but also like Al Green and Ray Charles and all that. Love this song, deleted my original comment cause it looked like I was disrespecting it, just it's a bit more echo than the one I have, what a song though,

[tillyvictory]

This is golden age

[7DeadlySinsVideos]

the chord progressions of a time.. and a place.. long high ways.. orange lights.. movement.. travel.. night..

[Jacinto1946]

Yo nací en 1946 y, de acuerdo conbabyRoses, nosotros disfrutamos la mejor música de la historia... ¡¡¡Gracias a todos los que la colocan en You Tube y nos permiten recordar...

[babyRoses7]

i was born in 1947 and i had the best of the best in music, i grew up with all these marvelous songs, this being one of my all time favorites! Thank you God for letting me be born in the right time! God Bless everyone!! and peace!

[oweneden]

@babyRoses7 Where did you grow up at?

[TEDOVSKY]

@babyRoses7 Me too buddy. Born in amsterdam( in 1938) i went to india in the early sixties with my childhood sweetheart. A year later we arrived in new york. harley-biked across america where we met only the best americans, this song exploded on our radios then and we rolled into san fran in 1967. Vietnam, talk of nuclear war with the soviet union at any moment,orgies and a lust for freedom kind of pushed us into the peace movement and we stayed in san fran until 1980. Peace to you too!

[Crispysmith123]

Cooley High anyone?

The Motown sound and funk/soul was the best of the '60s in my opinion. yeah, i like Zep, Beatles etc, but prefer this music so much more - plus this was the stuff I heard growing up as a kid

[81reflog]

[Znl0931]

[KindredofLegousa]

[rickydlp]

[01arsonist]

national heroes - holland and dozier.

[soulmanice]

Great song but the mono single mix is a lot punchier.

[rafaelvicentecarlos]

Good old music from great sixties

[EutoTrash60]

This is without a doubt one of my top 5 favorite songs of ALL time!!!! 

[hsjames1]

I see why it went number one. It always played at the swimming pool in the Philippines when we lived there in the late 60s. I always liked it.  It really gets inside you. I just bought it today on a single from classic 45s.

[blazedchingon]

This song is one of my favs it helps me be strong

[abizzleabombay]

Listen to this song and try to sit still.

[MysticSojourner]

This is only one of several tunes by the Four Tops that linger in my emotions. "2009Denisem" said it best: "Thank you Nocaro for yet another awesome post!"

[amrak63]

Favorited. Sure, I have this song on CD, tape, and both my PCs, but it's nice to have a video to post on forums to demonstrate how awesome this song is. ^_^

[THRILLAKILLA187]

@2009Denisem they sure don't :-(

[Marievil68]

Thanks as ever for posting this gem, I love it...!! Faved & 5 *****
