Ain't No Woman (Like the One I've Got)
"Ain't No Woman (Like the One I've Got)" is a song written by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter, released as a single by the Four Tops on the ABC/Dunhill record label, from the album "Keeper of the Castle". It peaked at number four on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot 100 the weeks of April 7 and 14, 1973, number one on the "Cash Box" Top 100 the latter of those two weeks, and became a gold record. The song was originally recorded by the singing trio of Hamilton , Joe Frank & Reynolds and released on their 1972 album, "Hallway Symphony". The Four Tops' hit version was led by longtime singer Levi Stubbs, and included special co-lead spots by the other Tops, Lawrence Payton, Renaldo "Obie" Benson and Abdul "Duke" Fakir, in that respective order during the chorus. The words tell about the love a man feels for the woman with whom he is having a relationship. It was the Four Tops' second single release on ABC after leaving Motown in 1972, and became their most successful post-Motown top 40 hit, reaching number four on the US Pop  Singles chart. It was also another big success for the group on the US R&B Singles chart, where it peaked at number two. Other cover versions. Additional interpretations include: Bloodfire Posse; Mel Brown; East Coast Band; The Friends of Distinction; Home T; Kashif; Louie; Johnny Mathis; and Melvin Sparks. The song was later reinterpreted by Jay-Z and Foxy Brown in their 1996 hit, "Ain't No Nigga".
