Precious memories keep lingering on...

Just today I was talking to somebody about how much I loved listening to Motown growing up. To this day, it's still the music I consider mine, the one that makes me the happiest. Later I found out that Levi Stubbs, the lead singer of the Four Tops had just died at the age of 72. One of the most distinctive voices of the Motown factory, Stubbs and the Tops were inducted in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame in 1990... R.I.P.
