:( RIP

Levi was without a doubt one of the great ambassadors of soul music...he comes from a class of untouchable soul singers...i dread the day when his peers, Smokey, Aretha, Gladys, etc...., are no longer with us.

My Dad and Uncles will be upset to hear this news. Very sad for his family, but his legacy lives one through some great music. RIP Levi

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Aside from hearing those Four Tops records on a daily basis growing up (thanks Dad!), the 1986 version of 'Little Shop of Horrors' is one of my all-time favorite movies!!! Levi as Audrey II...CLASSIC! I swear I was just wondering how he was doing these days because you never hear about the Motown era artist until...well...they're gone! My weekend is officially destroyed. R.I.P Levi. :*(

"Feed me Seymour!" R.I.P.

Aw, RIP, Levi. I remember watching you leading the tops on TV back in the day. You were older, rocking the salt-n-pepper beard but still sounded on point. Thanks for the great memories.
