("Tower of Power", 1973, Warner Bros.)
Music is a medecine, you should take this soul vaccination !!!
On their third album, the funky group Tower of Power found their best lead singer, Lenny Williams. Accompanied by his explosive horn section, the Oakland-based band released his most successful album (the singles "So Very Hard To Go", "This Time It's Real" and "What Is Hip?" charted on the Billboard Hot 100).
