Album Review
In contrast to the many soul veterans who who have turned to urban contemporary sounds in the hope of staying on the staying on the charts, Tower of Power has stuck with the type of horn-driven, live-sounding funk and soul that put the Bay Area band on the map. Tower was long past its prime by the time Monster on a Leash was released in 1991, and had experienced its share of personnel changes. Lead singer Tom Bowes, although a passionate and competent belter, is hardly on a par with Lenny Williams. Even so, this is a respectable and decent effort from a band that remained artistically viable by staying true to itself. Unapologetically '70s-sounding, the album falls short of the unmitigated excellence of Back to Oakland and Urban Renewal, but isn't significantly different in its approach, content or attitude. While novices would do better to start with either those gems, this is an album that diehard Tower enthusiasts shouldn't pass up.
Customer Reviews
i love being the only person having a review for this
nobody knows this cause it is bad
You have to be kidding me.....
after 25 years, these guys come out with a gem like this !!!!! This is the tightest band to ever grace the stage and I'd put them up against any of the "commercially successful" bands out there. If you don't know Tower of Power, you can't know What is Hip! Hands down the best ever!!!!
worst Tower of Power album
There are only 2 or 3 good songs here that are worth listening to.
