Four Tops - Back Where I Belong '1982

Tracks list

Back Where I Belong marks the Four Tops return to Motown after stints with ABC
and Casablanca Records. The foursome also united with the hit songwriting and
production team of Holland-Dozier-Holland on some cuts. The slow, meandering I
Just Cant Walk Away, not one of HDHs best, died upon release, while the much
better, shuffling, percolating Make Yourself Right at Home suffered from a total
lack of promotion. Hang, a duet with the Temptations, had a good message and
sparkling, creative vocals, but got stuck as the B-side of the debut single;
few, if any, DJs flipped it over. The duet with Lady Soul Aretha Franklin What
Have We Got to Lose pales in comparison to earlier duets by the two super acts.
Overall, the Four Tops are more mellow and subdued here than in the past.
