OT: Music Question
- Thread starter Heller
- Start date
The oh so very soulful lead singer got him a case of the blues. Ridiculous good.
Blues with trombone and sax. New Orleans style. Good stuff.
If you like them, check out Tower of Power. Funk, Jazz, Disco...I kind of say they are like a poor man's Earth, Wind, and Fire.
I own Tower of Power vinyl! Admittedly haven't listened in many years. "Chase" was another band with horns (no, trumpet kinda horns) many years ago.
I saw them play two shoes at the Ryman awhile back. Very silly band with tons of mojo. Any band with horns is a winner in my book. This band is towards the top of the list.
I can hear what you are hearing Heller. Paul is from Alabama, so they may have a southern gospel inspiration thing going on.

Tower of Power played the Vogue many years ago and they were flat awesome. However their best work for me was the Little Feat Live album where they backed up Lowell George and the original band. Waiting for Columbus is the title and I still listen often.
Great Live album by a uniquely great band. Hey guys if you want to listen to some great stuff try Moreland and Arbuckle .
I saw Little Feat at the old Circle Theatre in Indy ... with Supertramp ... Open seating and not many knew about them back then. The Circle was not large. No Tower of Power backing them up though.
