Topper-Voices Of Rock & Soul! / Press

“Only For The Money is a certified rock classic. It is the only independently produced classic rock album that truly defines the genre in every way. Screaming guitars pounding rhythm section, unforgetable melodies, and most of all a vocalist who captures the spirit and soul of legendary singers like Sam Cooke, Paul Rodgers, Steve Perry, Lou Grahm and Don Henley. The digital release,Only For The Money-Deluxe Edition, has three unreleased demos,Time Is On My Side,What About Me and an instrumental version of Same Old Story. After over 30 years,Topper continues to tour,record and present their Classic Rock show, 'Voices Of Rock' to fans all over the world. ”

“Review For 'Holding On' "The guitar part was magnificent. The effect on the guitar gave it a mystical sound with such warmth backing it up. The vocals reminded me of possibly a Boston or similar band from that era. Very catchy lyrics and chorus. The transitional periods of music were very intricate and pleasant to hear. The song progressed with a great tone. The drums kept a simple beat in the background and keep me tapping my foot. The vocals were really what kept my attention though. Complimented with the guitar's sweet tone, the vocals were loud and proud in this song."”

“Review For 'Playing The Game' "Booming horn section sets the tone for an old school soul testifier to lead a revival style stomper. Delivering some tandem vocals in the Sam & Dave tradition, these two vets are appealing against a Motown type groove with tons of appeal. Broken romance song has a lot of those feel bad/good lyrics that Dozier Holland used to crank out. Retro but feels so good for it!"”
