  • With a history 50+ years in the making, Tower of Power has been a funk institution since 1968, knocking out hits like “What is Hip,” “So Very Hard to Go,” “This Time It’s Real,” and “You’re Still A Young Man'' while lending their soulful sound to collaborations with Santana, the Grateful Dead, Elton, Huey Lewis, Justin Timberlake and everyone in-between.
    50 Years of Funk & Soul: Live at the Fox Theater captures their storied career with no-holds-barred victory lap concerts in Oakland, CA, performing their full spectrum of life-affirming funk and soul hits to sold out audiences in 2018. Available as a 3-LP set, 2-CD/1-DVD package, standalone DVD and digital audio configuration, these historic performances include special guests Chester Thompson, Lenny Pickett, Francis ‘Rocco’ Prestia, Bruce Conte and Ray Greene.

    The baddest band around. In the 1970’s their song “ So Very Hard To Go” was at every skating rink at “Moonlight Skate”...How I still love that song....

      @Topjunkie I was Walk ng home from School in the 8th Grade in 1968 and heard Your Still A Young Man on Transistor Radio.

      @Topjunkie I was a trumpet player as a kid and played in all the high school band activities. In the very early 70's, all the brass and woodwind players, to us our "heroes" were Chicago and rightly so.
      Then in the summer of 73, my graduation year, a drummer buddy of mine came over with the "What is Hip?" LP. He said "check these guys out."
      From the first note, I was hooked although I had heard "Young Man" on the radio. I still loved Chicago with Terry Kath who I saw 8 times(whole other story in that.) Now ToP was my band and since then saw them whenever they played on the East Coast. I would travel 50-100 miles for a show. Hope to see them soon. Do you know if they have a new lead singer? I heard Marcus is gone.

    Saw this tour when they played Kansas City! Awesome show as always and even got my Raiders cap signed by a couple of the band members after the show! That young kid on lead vocals from Memphis is really something! He did those songs like he's been there forever! I was blown away by that! What a night that was for us long time T.O.P. fans!😎🤘
