They want to focus on the rock from the 70's. Groups like this made the 70's one of the best times of my life. And many other people too. Reaganism destroyed the vibe along with crack and heroin!
A lot of people know and love this song one of the other videos has like 7.1 million views they just don't realize that this is the original. They didn't scroll down enough to see the Live video. I'm always looking for the live videos of the original. So they know and love it they just checking out the wrong video✌️
I'm serious!! I was just watching the last Oakland As play their last game in Oakland and they play this song... And now it's on repeat for the rest of the entire year. ✌🏽🙏🏽
What a GREAT song! Been one of my all-time favorites since its release in 1973! I've always been a horns guy, and the horns in this song are just tremendous!!!!! Loved it at 14, still loving it and jamming to it at 64!
First time hearing this song in 2024 and immediately fell in love with it. I was born in 64 but never heard of it. Now it will be on my Playlist of songs. The horns and trumpets were spot on. Beautifully done
Sophomore in Highschool, graduated in 75 (South of San Francisco) and as soon as I turned 18 I used to go jam at a Club in San Carlos and watch them live every time they played... and that was a lot ✨✨❤️✨✨ The Brass and Lenny's vocals are ingrained into my Soul forever. A huge part of my life 🧬🧬
WOW I HAVENT HEARD THIS SINCE I WAS A SOPHOMORE IN HS. I LOVED IT THEN, I STILL LOVE IT NOW. IT IS JUST A GREAT GREAT SONG. AWESOME VOCALS, THE BEST FROM THE HEART!
The 1970s decade was the best for music and this group kind of went under the radar but for those people who know music they were right at the top. I bought the very first album in 1972 and I’ve never looked back still one of the greatest groups and one of the greatest horn sections ever.😊❤❤
My wife and I use to dance to this song back in 1973. Just my opinion but 50 years later TOP is still the best Soul band around. It’s 50 years later and they still are playing gigs. The lineup has changed over the decades but they are all very talented musicians.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I can listen to this song over and over again! From the first time I heard “Very hard to go” - Bravo to Tower of Power! All the players are the best of the best! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Un clásico de la música del alma, es una joya musical, me transporta a la mejor época de la música, gracias a Dios viví y a mis 62 años la sigo disfrutando, gracias por compartir tan inolvidable melodía. Saludos desde Costa Rica.
Can you believe in 2022 I went a birthday party in Southfield Mi and Lenny Williams was the special guest and he sang this song. He still the sounds the same. What an entertainer!!! Still handsome❤️
The lead guitarist Bruce Conte is a friend of mine. He used to drop by the studio of 89.1 Power FM in Cebu Philippines, where i work as a disc jockey. The station transferred to a new location and i did not see him after. I saw his name on UA-cam as one of the musicians who passed away in 2021.
Lenny williams an marcus scott are my 2 favorite tower of power singers. Lenny never came back after he left. Check out the tiny desk episode with marcus scott.
Que buenos metales le da un color especial el barítono que canción esto es lo mejor que se escuchó en los 70sen las discotecas.de México como añoro esos días 🌞 gracias Paquito secre gracias
Thanks sir for this classic ❤❤❤❤❤
Such a great song. Love it. And lead singer Lenny Williams is still going strong too!
When we were teenagers we thought music was always gonna be this good. Sadly, we were wrong.
Wow you sure are right...
So true....so true.
I wonder why so few people realize just how good this song is. It has been my groove for like 40 years.

Me too....Still listening in 2024!!
5/2024- I'm 66 and still here listening to this version! I saw them in concert twice, Lenny had a beautiful voice and that horn section was top notch!
Me too...born 1960....takes me back to HS Chicago
I'm serious!! I was just watching the last Oakland As play their last game in Oakland and they play this song... And now it's on repeat for the rest of the entire year. ✌🏽🙏🏽
This song & TOP still crank 50 years later.
Absolutely 😁
This is one of the best songs, singing performance and groovy, funky TOP groove. Lenny Williams sings the hell out of this song.
Only Lenny could have done this Song the Justice it deserved.
The 70's were an incredibly powerful special time.
I really miss those days 🥹
When music didn't suck.

Shame on you, Christine 😮😊
I've seen them four times in concert and they've never disappointed.
Well, Happy 60th 😊 birthday sista🎉, celebrating mines June 24th. Tower of Power was one of the best bands in our youth' 70s.
I had the 8 Track, got it at Tower Records in Campbell California in 1974...good times my friends 😀😀 good times.
Classic song , killer horns !
50 years later...still loving this song & Lenny Williams vocals!
The greatest group that ever existed! Them and E, W, and F ruled the 70's
You got that right.
Spot on 😁
Fantastic song, great vocals by Lenny Williams and the horn section is fabulous! I never tire of this song❤
I agree 100%!!
You got that right
Lenny Williams is the man. Let’s also hear it for that amazing horn section.
Still such a cool sound in 2024 been on my playlist since 73 🎵
Where were you in '73 ? Those were some DIFFERENT TIMES !
Graduating from high school in northern California.
I was going to high school jamming Friday nights parting with friends & TOP MUSIC!!!
😅
Senior in high school
Sophomore in Highschool, graduated in 75 (South of San Francisco) and as soon as I turned 18 I used to go jam at a Club in San Carlos and watch them live every time they played... and that was a lot ✨✨❤️✨✨
The Brass and Lenny's vocals are ingrained into my Soul forever.
A huge part of my life 🧬🧬
Lenny went on to make one of the best love song of all time------cause I love you is being played around the world to this day.
amazing song band and era, Lenny still brings goosebumps and a tear
One Of My Favorite Songs I Was 10 Years Old And Loving This Song Back In 1973 60 Now And Still Jamming To It Iconic Song 🎵
One of the great tunes of my high school era
WOW I HAVENT HEARD THIS SINCE I WAS A SOPHOMORE IN HS. I LOVED IT THEN, I STILL LOVE IT NOW. IT IS JUST A GREAT GREAT SONG. AWESOME VOCALS, THE BEST FROM THE HEART!
This is: "Total Absolute Perfection"!
2023. Now who’s listening with me please!.Classic.
Esse moço é um dos maiores cantores do planeta , e a música eu escutaria mil vezes vezes cem ...
DISSE TUDO!
Perfeito
The 1970s decade was the best for music and this group kind of went under the radar but for those people who know music they were right at the top. I bought the very first album in 1972 and I’ve never looked back still one of the greatest groups and one of the greatest horn sections ever.😊❤❤
I saw an interview years ago. They wanted to stay under the radar. The music industry tried to change their song.
This is a perfectly written & arranged song from the 1st note .... to the last second GREAT ._/)
It really is! Possibly the best song of the 70’s! Perfection
Music producers these days only wish they could make music this good..... The best music is days gone by...
Damn this is wonderful. That horn section is both tight and nerdy as hell. As it should be. Lenny: magnificent.
My wife and I use to dance to this song back in 1973. Just my opinion but 50 years later TOP is still the best Soul band around. It’s 50 years later and they still are playing gigs. The lineup has changed over the decades but they are all very talented musicians.
THAT HORN SECTION, EVEN NOW IT'S LIKE HEARIN & SEEIN THEM 4 THE 1ST TIME
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I can listen to this song over and over again! From the first time I heard “Very hard to go” - Bravo to Tower of Power! All the players are the best of the best!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Me too!!

One of my personal favorites simply because it was not rock n roll.
I'm so glad I grew up listening to this music back in my country . Even though I was only 6 year old when it came out love it
Saw these guys live at the Diamond head crater festival 1975
Thank you Lenny Williams.

Lenny williams an marcus scott are my 2 favorite tower of power singers. Lenny never came back after he left. Check out the tiny desk episode with marcus scott.
One of the few bands who were allowed to play live on Soul Train
Lenny was the man when it comes to lead singers for Tower of Power. This song was off their 3rd album. Love the flugelhorn solo from Greg Adams 😊
Best singer top ever had hands down no contest
Lenny Williams and TOP....East Bay soul....simply the best. Right On!
Just saw TOP in concert in Birmingham, Alabama. Great show!
Maravilhoso
Lenny Pickett on Sax, now the leader of the Saturday Night Live Band.
Lived in SFO and was blessed to see them in person several times.
Timeless❤
Love you ❤
Lenny, Lenny, Lenny
Happy memories😊😊😊😊
