Reach Out is an album recorded by the Four Tops, issued on Motown Records in July 1967. It was the final Four Tops LP to be produced by Motown's main songwriting and production team, Holland–Dozier–Holland, who departed the label in late 1967 over money disputes.

Along with Reach Out, I’ll Be There, the Four Tops were infusing soul and R&B with new levels of maturity and taste, making the songs impossible to ignore and validating them with a new certainty of purpose. This was a time when formal albums were created around a single hit, with the album Reach Out being a true exception to the rule, though one should certainly consider that by this time, the marketplace was catering to those who were used to purchasing full and thoughtful albums, demanding that 33’s be laced with a body of material that was cohesive

The Four Tops’ 1966 song Reach Out, I’ll Be There is a feel-good Motown Records classic and one of the group’s biggest hits. The Four Tops were a vocal quartet from Detroit, led by singer Levi Stubbs. Reach Out, I’ll Be There was written by Motown’s defining songwriter trio nd-composed of Lamont Dozier and brothers Brian and Eddie Holland. While Dozier and Brian Holland handled the production and composition of their songs, Eddie Holland would write the lyrics and arrange vocals

Though it's one of the best Four Tops records of the '60s, Reach Out still feels weighted down by a few vain attempts at adult pop crossover. It certainly starts out right, with the glorious "Reach out, I'll Be There," the group's second pop/R&B chart-topper. After a faithful cover of the Left Banke's "Walk Away Renee," though, listeners are forced to sit through trite versions of "If I Were a Carpenter," "Last Train to Clarksville," and "I'm a Believer" to get to real highlights like the dramatic, impassioned.

Reach Out has a unity unlike other Motown albums to this point. It sold to a market now used to the LP as something more than simply filler in between singles thanks to records such as Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys and Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by the Beatles. Brian Epstein, the Beatles' manager, championed the Four Tops and brought them over for a promotional tour of the UK. Reach Out can be seen as the high-water mark of the first decade of Motown. Within three months of the album's release, Motown hastily put together the Four Tops Greatest Hits, which was to become the biggest selling record of their career in the UK. Put that and Reach Out together and you have some of the most passionate, soulful music, exquisite playing and well-written melodies of all time.

Reach Out I'll Be There" (also formatted as "Reach Out (I'll Be There)") is a 1966 hit song recorded by the Four Tops for the Motown label. Written and produced by Motown's main production team nd, the song is one of the most well-known Motown tunes of the 1960s and is today considered The Tops' signature song. It was the number one song on the R&B charts for two weeks,.

Reach Out’ was on the charts in no time, and made No. 1 pop when it took over at the Hot 100 summit from the Association’s ‘Cherish. As its two-week reign ended there, it started another on the R&B register, and a three-week run at the UK summit. Even if it’s widely recorded that the producers had Bob Dylan‘s concurrent success in mind when they requested similar urgency in Stubbs’ vocal performance, it’s still instructive to look back at how the Tops themselves described the song. So they went away and came back with ‘Reach Out And I’ll Be There’. I think it’s the best piece of folk-rock that’s been around in a long time. Not too many who made it a transatlantic No. 1 would necessarily call it folk-rock, but they’d all call it a soul classic. Reach Out I’ll Be There’ is on the Four Tops’ Reach Out album, which can be bought here. Follow uDiscover’s Four Tops Best Of playlist.
