In the present review we summarize direct and indirect evidence that the massive close binary frequency is very large. We then discuss the binary evolutionary processes and we present a general massive close binary evolutionary scheme. Finally, we highlight the importance of massive close binaries for population number synthesis and the chemical evolution of galaxies.
