“Still Water (Love)” #11 10/24/1970

The Four Tops had something of a dry spell for several years before this unexpected hit, co-written by Smokey Robinson. Marv Tarplin of the Miracles appeared here, as did the Andantes plus Brenda Joyce Evans and Billie Rae Calvin, soon to become two-thirds of the Undisputed Truth (“Smiling Faces Sometimes”). This inspired Marvin Gaye’s comeback effort “What’s Going On.”
