In memory of
Levi Stubbs
06/06/1936 - 10/17/2008 (72)
We remember Levi Stubbs for the voice that gave soul its name. His music still speaks to the heart of anyone who listens.
Music is the voice of the soul, and I just tried to let mine be heard.
Wolky pays tribute to Levi Stubbs, lead singer of the legendary Motown group The Four Tops, who passed away on October 17, 2008, in Detroit. Born on June 6, 1936, Stubbs was one of the most distinctive and passionate voices in soul music. With timeless hits such as Reach Out I’ll Be There, Baby I Need Your Loving, and I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch), he helped define the sound of an era. Known for his emotional delivery and loyalty to his bandmates, Stubbs remained with The Four Tops for more than four decades. His voice lives on as a symbol of sincerity, love, and the timeless power of soul.
