For over 55 years, Tower of Power has delivered the best in funk and soul music. Bump City, their 1972 debut for the label, was a hit on both the Billboard 200 and the R&B Albums chart, and netted them the hits "You're Still A Young Man" and "Down to The Nightclub." The 70s were a boom period with radio classics like "So Very Hard to Go" and "What Is Hip?," and the band continued to tour and record over the years. 50 years later, in 2018, they returned to Oakland to celebrate their landmark 50th anniversary. Tower's window-rattling grooves and raucous party spirit has been a balm for the soul throughout their half-century existence, but the release of 50 Years of Funk & Soul: Live at the Fox Theater couldn't have arrived at a better time.
