Main Street People is the twelfth album by R&B group the Four Tops, released in 1973. It produced three singles, one of which, "Sweet Understanding Love" was the group`s last top 40 single in the US for eight years. The album itself did not enjoy the commercial success the group was used to: `Main Street People didn`t do near what it should have done,` Abdul Fakir said in 1982, `considering the quality of the material.`[3][4]
