Deeply moving.......2007-03-26

This album is a real showcase for the depth of James Ingram's talent. He sings with deep emotion that sets it apart from many in its generation.

An underrated singer with a phenomenal voice!!!.......2007-02-20

James Ingram to me is one of the best singers of all time. His voice is very unique, and I love the fact that he doesn't have to riff in any of his songs. Listen to songs like How do you keep the Music Playing, and Baby, Come to Me, and you will see what I mean. James, come back out with a new album!!!!!

The best of the best!.......2007-07-09

This 2001 Tower of Power anthology spans the period between 1972 and 1976, during which they were signed to Warner Records. The albums represented include 1972's Bump City, 1973's Tower of Power, 1974's Back to Oakland, and 1975's In the Slot and Urban Renewal. These albums are widely considered the best TOP ever recorded, and this collection is a well-selected compilation of the best of these fine albums. During this period, Oakland's Tower of Power set themselves apart from the budding west coast music scene with their brand of soulful funk (or funky soul, whichever you prefer). Most famous was their incredibly tight horn section, which had as many as six players and full instrumentation. Besides being a vastly talented section, these players play so well together and their chemistry makes them a joy to listen to. The rhythm and percussion section is also very talented, so musically Tower of Power is just awesome on this disc. During this period, Tower of Power had two lead vocalists. On the earlier albums, the competent Rick Stevens was the singer, before being replaced by the wonderful Lenny Williams in 1973. Williams is very entertaining. Besides being a really gifted vocalist, he is so much fun because of his yelling and performance, you can tell he's having fun too. His voice has great range and versatility, and he brings a lot of soul and even gospel influence to the group. The tracklist is very well selected, and it is done in chronological order, so you can watch the band's progression. There's a nice balance of pure upbeat funk tracks and their signature slow jams. Tower of Power songs are all so well written and produced, and this record is a perfect example. I highly recommend "The Very Best of Tower of Power: The Warner Years" to all.

The compilation kicks off with a bang, the blasting "You Got to Funkafize," showcasing the awesomely powerful horn section. "What Happened to the World That Day?" is a heartfelt love song, Rick Stevens' influence is pretty clear on these earlier tracks. "Down to the Nightclub" was their first big hit, a swinging party song. "You're Still a Young Man" is another solid early-70s slow jam. "What Is Hip?" is their best known song, musically incredible, with a gorgeous arrangement for the funk guitar and horns. Lenny Williams also lends one of his finest performances ever on this song. "So Very Hard to Go" is among my favorites, an inspired love song, and "This Time It's Real" is also very appealing, a happy and hopeful ode. The slow "Will I Ever Find a Love?" precedes the awesome "Soul Vaccination," a fast and funky cut from the same mold as "What Is Hip?," but maybe even better. "Time Will Tell" and "Below Us All the City Lights" are both fine examples of TOP's range and versatility, and "Don't Change Horses (In the Middle of a Stream)" is a pumped up, swinging number. The slow, well-produced songs "Willing to Learn" and "I Won't Leave Unless You Want Me To" are split by the unforgettable "Only So Much Oil in the Ground," with the soaring horn cadence and Williams' wild vocals. The collection closes with the inspired "You're So Wonderful, So Marvelous."

One thing I love about Tower of Power's 1970s discography is that unlike so much music from that era, it really doesn't sound dated at all even today. Their music is so unique, well-produced, and exhibiting talent that the sound is timeless. For anyone who's a new listener or was a fan back in the day, "The Very Best of Tower of Power: The Warner Years" is a must have in the collection.

Not so faulty Tower.......2007-01-09

A bit dated, but I'm such a screaming fan I'd take recordings from when they were all in diapers!

You want to know the truth in life..........2006-06-24

...don't pass Tower of Power by. This band is smokin.' They have it all, great vocals, great compositions, great horns and arrangements. I would have loved to see Man From The Past on this one, but overall a very solid collection. So Very Hard To Go is top notch material - one of my all time favorites and they have so many great tunes - Below Us All The City Lights, Down To The Nightclub, What Is Hip, This Times It's Real, Only So Much Oil. Easily one of the best bands from the 70's. Got to have this one!

I would give it 6 stars if I could .......2005-11-02

This band is one of the greatest bands of all-time, and most people don't even know it. Their Top Ten songs are:
1. "What is Hip?"
2. "Down to the Night Club."
3. "Soul Vaccination".
4. "Only so much Oil in the Ground".
5. "Your still a Young Man".
6. "Diggin' on James Brown".
7. "Clever Girl".
8. "Attitude Dance".
9. "Oakland Zone".
10. "Page One".

Tower of Power: Live they are far better.......2005-06-26

Hallo Folks. I went to two concerts of TOP in the previous years in Holland, One time outdoor for the North Sea Jazz Fetival in The Hague and one time In Paradiso, in Amsterdam. I like TOP live far better than their album recordings. So for me the best CD is TOP live. This contains all their best hits, which are played more free, open and are recorder with much more base and a clearer sound. If you are a new fan, or a a huge fan, I would recommend the Live CD.

Stewy in Music City.......2007-07-12

This is truly one of the best albums of the early 70's. I am a big fan of CHICAGO but this collection and "Bump City" should have blown them right off the charts. The fabulous horn section played on many other artist's records, but listen to "What is Hip?" and hear them in their own element knock it out of the park! These guys are the real deal.

Tower of Power Self Titled CD.......2006-07-05

Although this is not a current selection (which actually was origianlly recorded back in 1973), Tower of Power will remain one of funk/R&B's premier bands which used a massive horn section to highlight their work.

On this CD, the noteworthy "What is Hip?" stands out as their rocking, syncopated, break-induced tunes. AOR lit into this one, as well as the soulful "So Very Hard To Go." Both these individual tunes are worth the price of the CD, but it doesn't stop there.

AOR never quite latched onto "Soul Vaccination" but that doesn't detract from the signature sound of ToP. The horn section is what drove ToP, and to this day I cannot think of another band that accomplished what ToP was able to do, when it was able to do it.

Tower of Power still receives airplay, but on a much smaller scale, considering this style of music is now considered as what ToP said in their song "What is Hip?": "What you think might really be passe'."

It is unfortunate that ToP is not still riding the airwaves in it's former glory, but since times and tastes have changed with the generations, we can only hope that ToP will remain an icon to older boomers who remember hard-driving funk and R&B.

This Time Is Real.......2006-05-09

If I may make up a word, then, this is FUNKTIFICATION TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL!!!! While listening to "Clever Girl" on an online radio station, I fell in love with the song. The vocalist was clear, the horns rocked (I am a Trumpet player, so, the screaming Trumpets grabbed my attention!!). I did some research and found out the group was the same group to release "You're Still A Young Man", just with a new singer, Lenny Williams. I found this CD and haven't stopped playing it!!! I would recommend this CD to ANYONE!!! Oh, and you will love Tower Of Power's trademark, THAT MONSTER HORN SECTION!!!!! Just listen to "Soul Vaccination" and you will do as Lenny Williams suggest. Get in line to get yours because I got mine!!

See them Live!.......2005-11-26

I won't regurgitate what is written already, this is just a kick-a** album!

I really want to add they still tour, usually jazz clubs, and are a not-to-be-missed act. If you ain't moving when "the Tower" is groovin' -- you dead.

Funk that's as hot and danceable as it gets.......2005-08-04

This is one helluva band. And really greased on this early 70s gem. Go get it. It's wonderful.

Why the concensus to diss National Emotion?.......2005-12-30

Despite the concensus opinion in most reviews to disparage Tommy Tutone's third album "National Emotion" I maintain that it was a stellar effort and should have been for Tommy Tutone what "Rumours" was for Fleetwood Mac. I am obviously the odd man out on this opinion, but happily so. Can we please have National Emotion go digital?!

A Real Class Act .......2005-06-16

Having been exposed to only "8675309-JENNIE" leaves you totally unprepared
for the scope and depth that this band summons forth in this compilation of their other songs. Tommy Heath and Jim Keller evoke a synthesis of sound that stirs the echos of Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, the Beatles, T-Bone Burnett and Tom Waits among others. Why they did not chart more hits is no mystery as they had little help or promotion from their label. With songs like "Which Man Are You", "Why Baby Why","No Way to Cry", "Steal Away" and "Tonight", all of which have haunting lyrics and captivating melodies (like Orbison's Ballads)they should have stayed in the Top 40. Their lyrics are so good they must have been written with a silver pen using golden ink because once you start listening to the songs, its hard to stop. For anyone that believes no good music came from the 1980s, you need only hear Tutone 'Once' to realize that's not true. They had a rare talent and should have stayed together longer because their music is much, much better than the seemingly anonymous and androgynous "pretty boys" which seemed more concerned with their hair than with their music. Their guitars and vocals are faultless, and adding the meshing together of the drums and keyboards have you believing they had been together for many years. They don't need the on stage antics of other bands, and they did not need it as their music is so introspective and different that it is almost, "stand alone."
A genuine diamond that begs to be played over and over.

Plenty of Good Stuff Here.......2002-07-19

Tommy Tutone enjoyed a short heyday during the peak of New Wave in the early 1980s. The first two Tutone albums contained an array of power pop--music with hooks and an edge. There are at least five or six great tunes on this CD. Jenny (867-5309 is their best-known song and may also be their best. But songs like Baby It's Alight, Angel Say No, Cheap Date and Which Man are You, among others, are worth a serious listen. If you're into the music of the New Wave period, definitely check this CD out.

One Hit Wonders Had Many Other Fine Songs.......2002-02-13

Tommy Tutone made three albums in the early 80s, and had one smash hit single, "867-5309/Jenny", which was from the second album, "Tommy Tutone 2". This CD re-issue combines the first 2 albums on one CD. (The 3rd album, "National Emotion", has never been issued on CD, but is a disappointment compared to the first two.) Tommy Tutone's albums were comprised of energetic power pop in the style of the hit, plus slower, more somber songs that were equally catchy but had a quality of melancholy - "Shadow On The Road Ahead", "Which Man Are You". The first album is pretty good, a 3-star effort, but it is on the 5-star second album where they really shine. The two leaders, singer Tommy Health and guitarist Jim Keller, where known during the band's brief life for not getting along well together, and after album three they finally split up. More than a decade after their heyday, Heath resurrected the band name and put out two more albums as Tommy Tutone, without Keller's involvement. I haven't heard either one. If you know and love "867-5309/Jenny" and are curious about whether the rest is worth owning, my advice is go ahead and buy this CD, there are plenty of other good songs to be found here.
(April 2003 update: Now I HAVE heard the two later albums, and I like them both. 1994's "Nervous Love" seems more like a Tommy Heath solo album, but 1998's "Tutone.rtf" has got the old Tommy Tutone spirit, and holds it's own with the best of the albums from the 80s. I've submitted reviews of each to Amazon.

Unknown Gems.......1999-03-08

Tommy Tutone is often noted as being a one hit wonder band. This is simply because "867-5309/Jenny" was their only song to receive air play. It isn't even their best song. This CD is full of good songs primarily from the first 2 albums. I highly recomend this CD, just take a listen and you will agree. Given more airtime for all their material they could of had a string of hits during the 80's, there is little music in the same genre today that can match this stuff !!

Live Tower in the 90s.......2007-06-10

I've been a Tower of Power die hard fan since the late 60s, before they even recorded. This CD doesn't dissapoint as Tower was always much better live than on records although they have made some fine recordings. The lead singer on this outing ranks up there with Rick Stevens and Lenny Wiliams......Tower definetly has the Oakland Stroke on this disc, excuse me but it's time to get down at the night club because after all, I'm still a young man.

A Funkin' Institution.......2007-03-19

TOP is in top form in this impeccable live performance. Recorded soon after David Garibaldi's return to the band you get to hear and feel how much imoact this phenomenal drummer has on the band and funk drumming in general. All the classics are here - What Is Hip, Soul Vaccination, Willin' to Learn, as well as some newer tunes. All are performed with what seems to be some new found inspiration (probably initiated by Garibaldi's contribution). Emilio, Rocco, David, Doc , and the rest of these stellar musicians are on fire and remain the most underappreciated institution of R&B. BUY THIS CD - NOW!!!!!

Great music!!.......2005-08-03

I'm a guitar based rocker, and I love this stuff!! Check out a couple of music downloads if you need to before you buy, but at least take a listen!!

Simply put, THE 2ND GREATEST LIVE ALBUM EVER!.......2005-06-03

I've been a fan of these guys since Huey Lewis got the horn section to play on two of his late 80's albums. I only got into them as a group afterwards in college. Most of the reviews I have seen about this album have been spot on in my humble opinion. I would just like to add that while its great to have live versions of new songs (Soul With A Capital "S", Diggin' On James Brown, So I Got To Groove) and old songs (Soul Vaccination, So Very Hard To Go, Can't You See..., etc.) this collection PALES in comparison to Tower's original live album, LIVE AND IN LIVING COLOR. I encourage everyone to pick that cd along with this one. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.

Vocals could be better.......2004-07-27

I saw TOP in April with Larry Braggs as lead vocalist. He has a much stronger voice than Brent Carter does on this CD. Nonotheless, this CD is almost as good as being there.

Formed out of various Oakland-based bands in the early '70s, Tower of Power was the West Coast answer to the various rock horn bands popular during that period. But where their rivals relied on catchy horn charts and bland lyrics (Chicago instantly comes to mind), Tower of Power was funkier, grittier, and a lot greasier than any of their contemporaries. Back to Oakland isn't one of their strongest albums. After two promising openers, "Oakland Stroke" and "Don't Change Horses in the Middle of the Stream," the set slips into more shapeless jams and is hobbled by the band's tendency toward mundane lyrics. Fans can savor the strong horn section work throughout, but this isn't the logical starting point for newcomers to TOP--a better bet is their second album, East Bay Grease. --Tom Vickers

East Bay... All The Way.......2007-01-02

What can I tell you about some of my homeboys... from the Bay. You gotta be ready for variety when you listen to ToP, because normal and ordinary is not them. They mix rock with soul with jazz with anything and everything else that sounds good. One of my favorites.

Excellent Groove, Never Gets Old, Squib Cakes Highlight.......2005-04-28

Several tunes on 'Back to Oakland' feature Tower of Power at their best. One in particular that keeps me coming back is the deeply funky instrumental track, 'Squib Cakes'.

Featured soloists include a short, mellow guitar solo from Bruce Conte, followed by Greg Adams' fluegelhorn that first lurks in the pedal range (leading one to believe it's a trombone!) and then soars brilliantly higher and higher to a dramatic finish.

Tenor madness abounds from lead saxman Lenny Pickett (known primarily for his work as lead Tenor for the Saturday Night Live band), wailing in-tune in the difficult altissimo range (jazz musicians call these 'freak notes' because they are not notes typically included in the range of the instrument ... ), while at the same time refusing to compromise on excellent rhythmic and melodic ideas throughout.

Chester Thompson completes the soloistic foursome with a chunky Hammond organ solo that takes you back to a smoky bar in LA in the early 70s - without the probability of cancer. Lyrical yet hard-driving, Thompson lulls us first into his solo space by filling in behind the band as they chant 'Squib Cakes', then takes off on his own flight, delving out perfect 16th-note runs as though Bach suddenly had learned some jazz Hammond himself. In the middle of the solo, as if to a testament to the tightness of the groove, Thompson lingers on a treble note in his right hand, chunks out chords so symmetrically with the rest of the rhythm section with his left, that in the days of hearing this on vinyl, I wondered if my record was skipping through that section!

To finish the groove, at the end of Thompson's solo, the horns return to fill in a bridge with quick triplets. After he closes, we're back to the head to close out the tune.

Even with so much to savor, this syncopated gem will leave you hungering for more, even after the final stroke of the last chord. The musicianship and tightness of their groove more than make up for the bland lyrics on the album's other tunes. I have listened to this album for 30 years and revel in its freshness every time I spin it. I recommend it as a definite primer for anyone wishing to explore Tower of Power's "sound."

ONE WORD: AWESOME!!!.......2004-08-13

I should have written this a long time ago. This album (CD) changed the way I looked at music, at groups, at the meaning of life . . . well, maybe not that drastically. But this album started a huge love affair between me and the Tower of Power. I'd never heard anything even approaching their level of musicianship, professionalism or tightness as a horn-based group. I'd heard a ton of groups up to this point in time: Blood, Sweat & Tears, Chicago and that group that made VEHICLE being the most prominent. Even Buddy Miles on his BUDDY MILES LIVE album (OOP) had a tremendous horn section But none of them highlighted the horn sections consistently. None of them could come close to this group of musical prodigies.

Every cut was a joy to listen to. Even the split-up version of OAKLAND STROKE was just a fun jam. My impressions of the group: Aside from Jimmy Smith, I hadn't heard a Hammond B3 sound so funky till I heard Chester Thompson. Aside from Jr. Walker, I hadn't experienced anyone who had such masterful control of their altissimo range till I heard Lenny Pickett. The supporting horns (Kupka, Castillo, Adams and Gillette) had their own vibe and despite a lack of solo time, managed to make a significant impact on every song. And for bass work, nobody was touching Rocco Prestia. In his true prime, Rocco's style was totally individual. David Garibaldi was what I considered a phenomenal drummer. All his rhythms were crisp and unique . . . playing off the sycopation of the bass, organ and guitar. He had a serious ear for rhythms. Bruce Conte was one of the most underrated of the crew, but his guitar work was ahead of its time. There were traces of jazz and some island influences that I hear very plainly.

Lenny Williams' vocals really set a definitive tone for this group. They were distinctive, fluid and heartfelt. His voice made the puzzle complete; put the icing on the cake; lit the cigarette after some mind-blowing sex.

My favorite selections: Without a doubt, JUST WHEN WE START MAKIN' IT ranks as one of my all-time favorite tunes. It exemplifies what the group is all about. It's jazzy, it's laid back, but it drives relentlessly, fills you with emotional fire and thrills your music sense to its fullest. Lenny's vocals are soaring and urging, Pickett's sax solos are powerful and sensual, the staccato background horns are poignant and dynamic, the organ break not only resets tempo, but turns into a thing of genius. CT creating a series of rippling, bubbling organ lines against the crescendo of the entire horn contingent and the incomparable Garibaldi drums - cymbals crashing, bass tom rolling, the incredible beat he lays down was too innovative. I was overwhelmed the first time I heard this. I must have worn out the vinyl from overplaying it. Actually, I have owned this album/CD around 12 times since 1973, from having to repurchase it after having it stolen or borrowed out indefinitely.

Other favorites: TIME WILL TELL, CAN'T YOU SEE, CITY LIGHTS. And no instrumental rocked my soul for a long time like SQUIB CAKES. Chester wrote a lot of songs in some other albums, but they all sounded like mutated versions of SQUIB CAKES . . . like distant cousins or wannabe next door neighbors.

In all, I really love this album. It's been part of my life for over 30 years. And it just sounds better everytime I put it on.

SQUIB CAKES!.......2004-07-24

Squib Cakes is such an awesome song. "Dont Change Horses (in the Middle of a Stream)" is great too. This is an awesome CD. GET IT

...like a bowlegged monkey.......2003-10-17

Of all the Tower of Power albums (yes albums) and CDs I own, this has to be the best of the bunch. You have the band at a great point in their history with one of the premier lineups. The stand out song for me on the album is "Can't You See", a great song, especially live. Other good tunes include "Man from the Past" and "City Lights", which I would suggest while spending some time up at Coit Tower in San Francisco. If you were to get one TOP CD, I would say to get this one.

Unforgivable.......2004-12-18

If ever negative values were deserved, this is the one. Not that Baby I Love Your Way was all that good to begin with, but to first pair it with Freebird and then to give the Skynyrd song a worse turn than Frampton - unbelievable that we had to suffer through this schlock (can't use a stronger word on Amazon.com) in 1988. Horrible, unforgivable, just about as bad as 1980s music gets.

Best CD of the 80s.......2002-09-05

3 freestyle dance songs that all hit #1 on the dance charts. And 1 ballad that went to #1 on the popcharts and still gets heavy airplay today. I highly recommend this CD

This album started the Freestyle Movement.......2002-07-19

Best album of the late 80s. The 3 big dance songs are classics ("Dreamin", "Say it's Gonna Rain" and "Fading Away". The ballad, "Baby I Love Your Way/Freebird" was extremely creative and one of the best ballads of all times. The radio stations still play this as a heavy recurrent.

Great Memories!.......2001-12-02

I love "Baby I love your way"! It was one of my childhood songs and reminds me each and everytime what beautiful things I have in this world...

This song was originaly sang by Will To Power for the first time ever, and I say this for the customers who are looking for this song ("With the boy and the girl singing..")..

The whole album's good, and I will truly recommend it for every music fan, and even the ones that love the 80s just like me.

The whole album: Good
"Baby I love your way.." song: A MUST!

Sorry.... I cannot give it less than one star........2000-11-11

You are kidding me, right? This "group" epitomizes all that was wrong with music in the 80's. The total lack of musical talent barely masked by over-produced electronic enhancment, while shredding not one but TWO classic rock and roll ballads. This CD is not worthy to be utilized as a coaster for a cheap light beer. Run away. Very fast.

I dont consider this they debut.......2006-07-29

Seriously anyone who gives this 5 stars is only do'in it cause DMX is on that one listenable track. This is not what the lox is all about. Pop bubblegum beats and radio friendly lyrics. Thats Puffs doing. If you really want to hear what the lox is all about, cop they solo album's and We are the streets. This album you can definetly tell Puffs pullin they strings.

Classic L-O-X!!.......2006-07-12

The LOX come good (no homo) with their debut album. This was before the D-Block movement they got goin' on now so it may be different to new LOX fans, but it's still heat. Jadakiss, Styles, and Sheek show with this album that they had skills then and still do now. If you like Hip-Hop go but this album now!

Overly, commercial, materialistic pap! .......2006-03-05

I can see why the Lox don't like to talk about this debut. This sounds as if Puffy did the whole album. Puffy and his Bad Boy production team produced most of the songs and it sounds like complete rejects from his No Way Out album instead of a Jadakiss/Sheek Louch/Styles project. Money, Power, Respect with DMX and Lil' Kim is the only strong song on the album. And what was the point of having the Mad Rapper on this album? Even the Hitmen's offerings come off as lame. The Ron Lawrence/Deric Angelettie song come off as lousy. And the ones from Nashiem Myrick, Stevie J and Carlos Broady come off as mediocre. But the low point is the pop-driven sound of If You Think I'm Jiggy, which Puffy produced and what worked for Mase doesn't work for the Lox. The song blatantly interpolates Rod Stewart's 1978 disco-driven hit Do Ya Think I'm Sexy. It's got a catchy beat a la Puffy, but the song's pretty bad and overly commercial. Out of 40 to 60 songs that Puffy produced in 1997 for artists, that's his worst! The lyrics on the album come off as materialistic and don't tell me too much about the group's background. Jadakiss had harder-edged rhymes and lyrics on the Lox' 2000 album and his solo stuff, but there's nothing he really offers here. The album's commercial sheen comes off as creatively empty. They should have let Puffy rap on this album instead and called it The Four Beats to Shake to.

I was intrigued with the title, but understood nothing of the lyrics. As most of rap (hip hop) this is incredible garbage. only my opinion of course.

Raw, Extra-Greasy Funk from Oakland CA!.......2006-09-20

It's hard to imagine more opposite places in such close proximity than San Francisco and Oakland, especially during the late 1960s/ early 1970s. Witness the contrast between the Summer of Love and Golden Gate Park be-ins versus unemployment and crumbling World War II-era shipyards; grooviness versus gritty urban reality. Also witness the pronounced distinction between the bands of the era: acid-tinged free-form jamming (Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane) versus the working-class howl of the east bay's Creedence Clearwater Revival and the inimitable funk band Tower of Power.
"East Bay Grease" blasts out of the Oakland flats with an edge and intensity that no hippie band could ever have hoped to match. Driven by a tight rhythm section, raw lead vocals (by Rufus Miller, the first of a succession of singers whom, in Spinal Tap fashion, kept getting waylaid by stints in jail, etc.) and of course that signature horn-section, "East Bay Grease" not only sets the prototype for the string of hit albums and singles that was to follow, but also has its own completely original, unrefined but virtuosic sound that, I believe, sets it at the top of TOP's discography.
Highlight tracks include "Knock Yourself Out," "The Price" and "Back On The Streets Again," which topically could have been recorded in the present era (certain parts of Oakland not having changed much since the day). Unlike other reviewers, I also like "Sparkling In The Sand," which may not seem to fit in at first glance but actually sets the template for their later classic ballads (i.e., "You're Still A Young Man").
And of course, there is only one Steve "The Funky Doctor" Kupka, whose gifts to the baritone sax are immeasurable.

Don't Play This One For Your Parents....Yipes!.......2006-08-13

Most music listeners know about the hit-making years of this legendary band, with whom I gradually developed some personal connections during their heyday. But not everyone has heard this - their very first commercial release - where it all began. Produced by David Rubinson and released in 1970 on music impresario Bill Graham's independent San Francisco label, this record signaled the end of an era as far as musical approaches were concerned. I was introduced to this band through this record by one of my young musical peers, who loved springing new things on those he knew could really get into something "different." Well...for 1970, this was very different from anything I'd heard on records up to that time, for sure! Raw, muscular, horn-driven R&B/Funk with gritty vocals that was more derived from southern-styled 60's Soul instead of the sweeter, more pop - oriented R&B sounds that dominated the airwaves of the day and vastly different from the psychedelic sounds of the rock bands of that era. Recorded basically 'live' in the studio, with only a minimal amount of overdubbing and remixing; representing what they sounded like then, in live performance mode; this music grabs you and refuses to let you go! Of course, the band eventually moved up to the major leagues with the switch to the Warner Bros. label in 1972 where they became more polished and turned out the best of their output; mainly during the first half of the 1970's, with their own sound and style of funk. And there always have been and probably always will be debates about who was their best front man and lead vocalist(they've gone thru almost a dozen - as close as I can remember, including ones who didn't even make it onto records with the group). I've heard them in live performance more times than any other artist I've ever listened to, and the many individual players who have passed through their ranks all attest to the joy of playing in this most unique ensemble. They have carved out a special place in the music world that is all their own and others have imitated their formula; yet, they still stand alone. But this record is always refreshing to go back and listen to for just pure enjoyment with no real commercial leanings and it served as an indicator of what was to come, in the next decade, when self - contained bands pretty much enjoyed their best popularity and success.

Pure unrefined FUNK!.......2004-11-02

I had this album on vinyl in the early 70s as a kid, and even then I knew it was something different. "Back on the Streets Again" has some of the tightest horn grooves ever heard. "Sparkling in the Sand" defies categorization -- despite it's slow tempo, it's not so much a ballad as it is a nine minute cruise, with waves of sound washing over you. The diversity of this band was amazing!

You Will Knock Yourself Out!.......2004-08-16

A word of warning Tower Of Power's cebut album is NOT the
least bit smooth or soft!From "Knock Yourself Out" on 'East Bay Grease' is filled with smelly horns,gutbucket rhythm and very
sandpapery singing.It actually owes more to the mutant horn
rock grooves of Blood,Sweat & Tears,Electric Flag and even Chicago then James Brown or Kool & The Gang.But the rhythm knows
it's buisness and that makes this album a dirving slice of gritty,hard core east coast funk!The plaintive "Sparkling In The
Sane" is the slowest song on the album and it doesn't even come
close to being soft-rather like a longish psychedelic soul groove with fleeting vocals.Any way you take it 'East Bay Grease' is very impressive stuff!

TOP RULES.......2004-07-24

AWESOME CD! TOP's first CD. One of the best, too. With "Knock Yourself Out" a GREAT song. And with Skip Mesquites fantastic flute playing on "Sparkling in the Sand" and Emilio Castillos awesome lead on "The Skunk, The Goose, and the Fly", this CD is a must have.

Album Description

The late 1960s-early 1970s were a time of great change, musically and spiritually. Some of the greatest music ever written came to life in this era. At the same time, political speakers like Malcolm X, Huey Newton and Stokely Carmichael stepped forward to lead a generation. Two words sum up the movement: Black Power. This two-CD compilation culls the greatest hits of that era, bringing together both politics and the era's culture as accurately as any history book.

• Includes rare sound bites from Malcolm X, Stokely Carmichael and Huey Newton as well as out-of-print tracks by Sons of Slum, The Philadelphia International All-Stars and Watts Prophets.

• Filled with huge hits that are constantly heard on radio, in film and TV, including Top 20 hits from The Chi-Lites, The O'Jays, James Brown, The Isley Brothers and Nina Simone.

• Features the most outspoken artists of the era, such as Parliament, The Last Poets and Gil Scott-Heron.

• This is the only domestic compilation available highlighting this era and is the first to tie together the political and cultural aspects of the times.

• Liner notes by GRAMMY-nominated writer Gerald Early.

Customer Reviews:

Great collection of music..........2005-10-24

I love this collection. There are so many great songs here and the sound bites are good too. Huey Newton, Malcolm X, H. Rap Brown, and others are all interspersed with the music, which really makes everything flow from song to song. These discs capture a moment in time that shouldn't be forgotten, and this collection is one way to preserve it.

Good documentary-type cd.......2005-09-27

Aside from the absence of narration (aside form the spoke asides I am about to describe), this is a good documentary Cd of music and (snippets of) speeches during the Black Pride era of the 60s and 70s. Archconservatives would still have a fit over the speeches of Malcolm X (Stop Singing and Start Swinging), Stokely Carmichael (We Want Black Power) and few radio stations today would play the now-imprisoned H. Rap Brown's "Violence Is as American as Cherry Pie" ("We built this country, we'll burn it down if it don't do right.") It says something that H. Rap is the only speaker in this compilation that's still alive at this writing. But these clips by people who are seldom discussed today are historically important and do a good job of settign the atmosphere and mood.

Now for the music. Stevie Wonder and Sly Stone's anthems of the period are well known and easily available elsewhere, so I don't mind their omission. The tunes of the Watts prophets, Last Poets, Soul Children, and Sons of the Slum would be a revelation to the current generation as most of the issues discussed are still relevant. The forgotten Hank Ballard's "Blackenized" (about low self-esteem in Black America) is particularly thought provoking as is the Philadelphia All-Stars "Let's Clean Up the Ghetto" (as a child of the 70s who was well tuned into the local soul radio station at the time, I am surprised that I only remember actually hearing this tune once at the time).

It fittingly closes with McFadden and Whitehead's 1979 anthem "Aint No Stoppin Us Now", which aside from Stevie Wonder's "Hotter than July" lp the next year was the last major message song of the era. But as a whole, this is a great history lesson with a beat that you can dance to as well as think.

LOVE IT.......2005-02-10

THIS IS AN AMAZING CD, EVERYONE SHOULD BY THIS, BLACK WHITE, WHATEVER THE MUSIC IS JUST INSPIRING AND THE RECCORDINGS ARE GREAT.

GREAT MUSIC!!!!!

Unbelievable collection.......2004-08-26

The title caught my mind and the musical idea of it called to the spirit in me. The soundbites are tight and the lyrics are still powerful. It doesn't matter what your favorite type of music is, these cd's are righteous. Especialy "Compared to What". Simply put I'm loving it. Listening to this and walking down the street is like a soundtrack to the revolution. It puts a whole face to all those soundbites from the 60's and 70's. The revolution will not be televised, Pick this up while you can.

Right On, Brothas and Sistas!.......2004-06-08

Black Power is an compulsively listenable collection of soul and funk tunes that deal with political or social issues. Well-known cuts rub shoulders with amazing obscurities. Any hip hop fan will find the foundation of rap right here. Highly recommended to soul and funk fans as well.
