It's a great version of the song! But somehow in my ears Levi Stubbs version of it sounds kind of... "foreign" U know?
-
Just Another lonely Night should have been an album for The Temps and The Tops. It would have sold millions.

I never knew Levi sung this,too. I'd only heard Paul's version. Very nicely done. i like just as much.

TIMELESS !!!!!

When you compare the vocal talents of the Temptations & the Four Tops, you are comparing David, Eddie and Paul to one man Levi. You can't assume that one great awesome vocal talent is going to outshine the brilliant styles of David, Eddie, and Paul in a group, it isn't fair to compare all those guys to Levi Stubbs, he was great and had great hits. I attribute the difference between the two groups sounds to the diverse writing styles of their producers. Holland Dozier Holland, Smokey & Norman.

Great vocalas. Listen carefully ... Levi was Jackie Wilson's cousin. You may hear a "touch" of the JW style in Levi's soothing renderings. Motown was a birthing place for grreat, great writing, producing and, of course, vocal talent. Those truly were the days of great entertainment.

In my opinion, I think the best version was done by The Fantastic Four in 1969.
I always enjoy hearing Motown acts taking their shot at a song that eventually was released by another Motown act. Levi is my favorite singer of all time. That being said, he didn't always knock every song out of the box. Paul Williams interpreted this song with much more passion and authority, while Levi sounded tentative in his delivery. Do you have Levi singing "This old heart of mine"? I've heard that the Four Tops really wanted that song, but the Isley Brothers won out. Thanks for the post.

Yea but Paul Williams gets longeron the Temps version, just as it sounds like Levi is about to get going the song ends! Apparently the Tops were in Europe touring,when HDH came up with "This Old Heart" so it was cut with the Isleys....
