Truly a master piece....i was playing pool with all my bros at Brother Gregs pad in Harbor City listening to TOP off an 8track!!!!!!!!!! Nearly 39 years later it hits home!!!!! If you dont feel the magic you never will...
Oh Sylvette...you hit the bullseye once again on this one...one of my all time favorites from the guys out of Oakland....this is truly East Bay music at its very best....the video speaks for itself....it's just perfect...that's exactly the way i imagined it would be... it blends beautifully with the song.....thank you for making me feel brand new again....thank God you exist.....
this year my high school marching band is doing a TOP show...our director used part of You're Still A Young Man/Can't You See for movement 1, Below Us, All the City Lights for the ballad and You're So Wonderful So Marvelous for the closer....its going to be a great season!!
This is by far Tower of Power's best of the very best......the musical arrangement is perfect...everything falls into the right places...Lenny's voice is just spectacular....it just couldn't get any better than this..
OMG!!! I just want to say that this song is very close to my heart. I was just a young girl when it came out and yes to be very proud to shout out that I was also born and raised in the city of Oakland, CA. Here I am turning 50 this year and this still brings tears to my eyes. Peace
Well these home town soul artists really made a great record with this song PD. I enjoyed this video, and of course this iconic song....by legendary T.O.P!
This song! This song! This song!!! It touches every part of my being. So tender, so lovely, so CLASSIC!! I'm not that well versed on FaceBook, but I will do whatever it takes to get TOP in the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame. I'm surprised that they aren't already. How did THAT happen? Anyway, thanks for posting this song. :)
Thanks, Sylvette! Tower of Power belongs in the Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Fame. It's too late for 2011, but I invite everyone to post Tower of Power tunes/videos to their Facebook page and to find out how we can influence the nominations committeeat the RNRHOF. TOP--43 years and still going strong!

Great tune. I think Mic Gilette's dad even played trombone on this song. I also love the French Horns! Gives it a classic touch.

This song was so big in Manila. Those chords and vocals are still amazing, after all these years! A song for every city we may live in today.

@morenochepe Mic was my idol in High School. I studied with Alan Ware from Chase, but BS&T and TofP had incredible horn players as well.
