Gigspot: Tower of Power

1/4/2012

This week we had the pleasure of experiencing Tower of Power live as they celebrated 44 years of making music. We were treated to nearly two hours of horn-heavy soul music including Tower of Power hits such as 'Soul Vaccination', 'What Is Hip?', 'Just Enough and Too Much' and more.

Front-man Larry Briggs's vocals were outstanding and we particularly enjoyed his powerful rendition of 'Me And Mrs. Jones'. The horns section, made up of Emilio Castillo, Stephen Kupka, Tom E. Politzer and Adolfo Acosta, was right on the money and a joy to the ears.

Not many music bands stick around for 4 decades and continue to tour, playing at such a high level. Tower of Power is a rare beast and long may it continue to roam the earth!
