Has anyone yet got a copy of the new FOUR TOPS DVD which was recorded in Paris in 1970, it came out a week ago, in fact copies where mailed out a week last Thursday, but nothing has arrived yet? (even Friends in the USA) - just wonder what it is like.

Thanks John

Oooooooh the comment I read on the amazon webiste goes like this :

"Being a huge 4 tops fan I pre-ordered this a few weeks ago. It isn't what I expected. I thought it was concert footage like their 40 year anniversary DVD, but instead it is footage of what appears to be rehearsals for a tv performance. The video is choppy and the cameraman, yes one camera, probably an old 16mm movie camera, is constantly moving around. Sometimes you find yourself looking at the back of their heads. It does contain a lead by both Lawrence and Duke, which is nice. This appears to be the making of the making of a 4 tops tv appearance. "

Too bad the filming seems so 'cheap' with only one camera... Yet it is a rare vintage performance so.....

I was always aware that it was a studio performance for 250, that was never hid from anyone, but then again it did not say anything about quality, but I suppose what can we expect from 1970, we only have to look back to TV around that time.

Perhaps it will arrive soon and another few reveiews can be made.

Thanks John
