The Four Tops turned a Moody Blues B side in to a classic...
As one of the comments noted....
Actually, that's the Moody Blues playing and singing backup on the recording. That's why you hear that extra oomph! While touring in the UK, the Tops picked up a single that had "A Simple Game" as the B-side. They loved it and contacted the Moodies to ask permission the cover it. The band was so flattered that they asked if they could record it with the Four Tops. It was recorded in England and the Moodie's producer Tony Clarke did the honors. It was a #3 hit in England.
