Still Waters Run Deep/Changing Times

From the time when Motown artists filled their LPs with covers of contemporary songs, these two albums are nonetheless very listenable. The production is of course immaculate, and two of the group's most sublime singles are included - 'It's All In The Game' and 'Still Water (Love)'. A decent package for a bargain price.

Classic Motown album,4 Tops at their finest.Levi Stubbs voice is sensational on all tracks,great version of Reflections.Would recommend to any Motoen fan.

Great THANKS fast delivery

This as a classic and part of my old Vinyl Collection. I had to get it on CD and am really glad I did. The tunes on this album evokes memories of great times dancing the night away.

I bought this cd expecting it to be the same as the old vinyl record but unfortunatley it is a remake or the original and in my opinion, nowhere near as good.

The first of the albums featured in this twofer – Still waters run deep – contains two major international hits. It’s all in the game was a hit for various singers in the fifties. Originally a USA hit for Tommy Edwards in 1951, it became a much bigger USA hit for him in 1958, when it also became a massive UK hit. It was also a huge UK hit for Cliff Richard in the sixties, but all that didn’t stop the Four tops having a top five UK hit and a top thirty USA hit. Still water (love) just missed the USA top ten but just made the UK top ten. There are some notable covers here, including Elusive butterfly (Bob Lind), Everybody’s talking (Harry Nilsson), Reflections (Diana Ross and the Supremes).The second album – Changing times – yielded Just seven numbers, a minor hit in the UK and the USA, plus another minor USA hit, In these changing times. On the album, this latter song is the second half of a medley with Long and winding road, the Beatles classic. Other covers on this album are Raindrops keep falling on my head and Try to remember.Most, if not all, of the other songs on this collection are originals and definitely worth listening to. Perhaps the Four tops were past their absolute peak by the time these albums were recorded, but there is still plenty of interest here. So don’t begin your Four tops collection here, but if you’re really into Motown, this is well worth investing in.
