Hubert Tubbs was vocalist on the Sacramento recording. He's been busy with several dance producers in Europe over the past decade or so. If interested, just search for him on Youtube. I love both Williams and Tubbs.

I fully agree. It is 25 minutes long, "He's LP, He's Lenny Pinkett!! that jam is epic. Lenny comes in with his solo and the band takes the dynamics down to a hush, 7 minutes later, lenny is just toggling one note with upper register harmonics. Then the drop out, he's still going. They come back in, then finally its chesters turn. Plays some haunted house clavinet shit, then plays some demonic sounding "scary gospel chords" Then whole band drops out and chester climaxes on the B3.

@r5t6y12 I am a big TOP fan from way back, and I still have the live LP. Live and In Living color is a great LP, but the lead singer on the LP was Hubert Tubbs. My opinion Lenny Williams, Hubert Tubbs, and Elis Hall were the Best singers TOP ever had. I think this video was recorded in Santa Monica Ca, around 73 or 74, and its a Great clip with the original members.

WHY OH WHY OH WHY can't someone with this footage (original reels or whatever) give it to some company (big or small) to get them cleaned up and released? I've been after a video for the audio of 'Live and in Living Colour' for 2 decades!

The version of this song from the 1976 LIVE album from Sacramento California ( at the beginning of the recording the EMCEE says "Ladies and Gentlemen, Live from Sacramento California, the Tower Of Power) is the greatest version of this song EVER.
