Tower of Power - Sould with a capital S - North Sea Jazz 2010, Live

[iceblaze1907]

David Garibaldi and Francis Rocco Prestia laying down the basis! no TOP without them!

[MrJesseG123]

saying that TOP needs a new drummer is like saying U2 needs a new singer. it makes no sense

[TheSitonmyface1]

FUNK WITH A CAPITAL F !

[doctpt]

oops, Larry started to introduce "What is Hip?" At least the rest of the guys saved him from saying it!! Great video thought!!!

[TebanaSankichi]

@doctpt Haha I didnt even notice that xD

[Frontdesk99]

First of all, it's SOUL, not SOULD.

Secondly, these guys need a new drummer. They start WAY too slow, speed up, slow down like a snail in drying concrete with every break, speed back up again... man that's bad.

@Frontdesk99 It takes either a brave or ignorant man to criticize DAVE GARIBALDI's drumming! Yeah, this track 'breathed' a little in it's time keeping because.... IT'S SUPPOSED TO!! T.O.P. is organic funk music played by humans who have the abilitiy to play with the downbeat. You're probably so used to listening to music recorded with click tracks and drum machines that you've forgotten or never knew how real music CAN sound when played by masters. Is it a mistake or is it something beautiful?

@Frontdesk99 Listen to this idiot. Are you kidding me, where in the world do you live and what have you been listening to. This is "live" and this what happens when you play live. You like the "made to order" crap good go buy it. but give me live music any day, and by the way, I've been in the business 40 years and I don't think you have a clue as to what really goes on with a live performance. This is the magic of performing live. You almost never do the the same song the same way.

[TebanaSankichi]

@awoosoul Yep, and not to mention that TOP always improvise in solo's etc every concert : ) This is a really good live band!!!

[TheSitonmyface1]

@Frontdesk99 I'm not sure what you've been listening to, but it can't have been the same as everybody else on here-you are right on one thing though. It is SOUL, not Sould

@Frontdesk99 - You are obvioulsy not a Tower of Power fan. The speed up the tempo on this song live on purpose. They have been doing it since their "drummer" rejoined the band in 1998. BTW - he has won the modern drummer "Funkiest Drummer" a record six times in a row. I suggest you do some homework on one Mr. David Garibaldi before you open your mouth.

[AngelinaVansen]

they were amazing in london o2 last year, awesome

[berthoeben]
