We all know the Four Tops as one of the exponents of the legendary Motown-label, scoring massive hits like 'I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)', 'It's the Same Old Song' and 'Reach Out, I'll Be There' ('... just look over your shoulder...'; love that break!). A song you probably haven't heard before is the astonishing '7-Rooms of Gloom' (hit the 'free user'-button to download). This song was -like most of the big Motown-classics- written by the Holland-Dozier-Holland production team and contains the typical up-tempo drumline, combined with strange gothic arrangements. '7-Rooms...' didn't make it to the top of the charts, but is definitely worth a listen...
