I'm all over the "musical landscape" these day, folks. You know what they say...variety is the spice of life! :)

"What is Hip" is from the 1973 album simply named "Tower of Power". It was their third album, and their most successful album to date. It reached #10 on the BillBoard 200. This album also spawned their most successful single "So Very Hard To Go".

So, get in line for a SOUL INJECTION!
Hope 'ya dig it!
Peace~

Ok buddy, I see you play Todd Rundgren and now Tower of Power. Todd is my rock god and I've been a TOP fan since 1973 when I saw them live at age 13, my first concert. Looks like you've got Rock and Soul! Keep it up pal!!!!!!!!!!
