Bill Lee and I produced this for Dick Clark and ABC, live at Santa Monica Civic, as first of a series of late night stereo simulcasts for ABC In Concert. First band I ever recorded and mixed with guys form Wally Heider and Rick Pickonin. They were flawless.

tower of power's best line-up ever! lenny williams was their best voclist ever! nobody touches him! neither can they mess with lenny pickett greg adams or mic gillette! when those guys left it wasnt tower of power anymore! they were so good they couldve been the master james brown's backup band. now put that in your pipe and smoke it a hundred times!

This is what's missing from todays TOP. That spontanious jam feel!

Best group...Lenny singing, Lenny Pickett as 1st sax, Mic Gillette and Greg Adams on trumpets and trombone. Listen to the drums and the bass playing off each other. And of course, Doc and Emilio, the founders...

@1jkeeling Yes, I agree. You see someone come out of nowhere and they are all plastic, not creative. They have to be good looking and be able to dance. It is all stupid.

Had the great fortune to see them live numerous times when I was in practice in the Bay Area in the early '70's!
This is the best version of Tower of Power..... They've been trying to recreate it ever since.... can it get funkier...
