There no one David is a monster on the Serious side of Syncopated funk. Man I love you guys.🥁😎🥁
What a treat to hear these horn arrangements exposed! And David, a lot of drummers got into drums because of Ringo. For me, it was your playing on Back To Oakland that sentenced me to a lifetime of drumming. Thanks man…
I never heard of David until about 2 weeks ago. I know Vinnie, Dave Weckl, and Buddy, but never knew David. That track I heard was incredible, his grove was so delicious. Now I hear this! On the Serious side, this is like insane. SO tight!! Great lessons from the horn player.
man, listen to soul vaccination. My fav
We first saw TOP in Cleveland Ohio at the Agora when they just released East Bay Grease. No one knew who they were, maybe 20 people in the audience. The next time they came back to Cleveland you couldn't get into the club. One of the greatest groups of all time and should be in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. They are real musicians and have "Soul with a capital S."
love this bare rendition - you can hear the whole kit carrying the beat with its resonance!
Nothing like TOP!!😊😊
one of my all time favorite TOP songs of all time. I can play this for hours on end and never get sick of it..
as always...perfection Mimi!!
This band is STILL bad-ass. Thank you Emilio, Doc and DG for keeping it going!
Excellent playing, especially amazingly tight considering there's no bass in this version- miss Rocco.......
One of the great things to come out of the infinite multi-universe theory is that there are infinite universes where I kept playing my trumpet and wound up playing with the TOP!
David doing what he does better than anyone. Sounding great my brother!!!
Love this !!!! You cats :-)
This is so awesome! TOP has been my favorite band for many years. And the best band in history, IMHO. This presentation of the horn section and drums reveals so much. And to hear their stories and advice is amazing. And... Doc speaks!! Holy crap. Thank you for this. Wish I could like this a thousand times.
I love the mike setup they have on Doc's horn. I wish the past recordings had Doc sounding like that. Man! The band sounds F*** awesome.
I've seen them almost 100 times and still the best.
I'd say I've seen em over 200 times and that was in the 70's & 80's.& 90's.
Love the back story, and this version was especially good. "It don't got to be loud, but it got to be funky."
Seriously. This is the top of beyond the top.
Thanks for the history of this song! I'm glad I'm not the only one that can't find the downbeat! 😂
I can't get this song out of my mind.
Funk master David Garibaldi laying down some voodoo, he is the best man. I was so fortunate to have studied with Dave, he is a true master of Funk…..
So glad DG wrote this out for us mere mortals in his book (Off the Record). This groove is mind bending.
Speaking of DG, his new book is out now. My copy comes today. Excited!
THIS IS SO AWESOME
Wow I was not expecting some odd timed shuffled scatting when researching these guys. That’s cool.
Damn this sounds good.
Mike. PLEASE never leave TOP. I met you over 16years ago. You make the trumpet section! I love the 2nd trumpet player as he is very talented. This band is monumental!
Go Dr. Kupka! Yeh!
Masteeeeeeeeeers!!!!!
Wise words from Mike Bogart. Loved them.
Pure Gold! Lay it down brother!
You guys are historical and funny at the same time. I love TOP and I plan to see you guys in a month in Birmingham, AL.
In the Slot, the whole album is syncopated bliss!
Always on TOP. BACK TO OAKLAND!
Goosebumps!
They're tight as hell.
Hubert Tubbs sang it on In The Slot album recording in the Mid 70's.
So sick
Phenomenal
Me and my friends from our ROLLINGWOOD neighborhood,
used to jump the fence at CONTRA COSTA COLLEGE and watch TOWER OF POWER rehearse..
BEFORE THEIR FIRST LP !!!
Dewayne JACKSON & ARTY BARRON led the way..
Mararavilhoso. Obrigado
Back to Oakland...learned King Kong and was hooked
Me encantó la batería :D
GOAT
If you ever practice any type of syncopated beat then that is Mr Garibaldi surprisingly I have not heard to many drummers who don’t know who he is.
You gotta count! Count MFR!
Damn ...
the drummer is crazy, its so hard to keep that groove up and stay on time with such little support in the beginning
A question for which I cannot find the answer: Who did all the arrangements for TOP? Thanks.
"It ain't no laughin matter
Stop all your piddly patter
coz the idea of the peanut gallery
went out with the demise of Howdy Doody"
Truer words were never smoken
Is Doc OK?
second comment!!
Kind of difficult to replace Rocco…
All I know I just saw them a few weeks ago.And the drummer is good, but he got some big shoes to fill since David retired.
Horns........
I will be 69 on Friday. Talk about memorization just reminds me that I can't remember. ba da dum chick. CRS
A real tasty figure.
