    Growing up in the 70's, I listened to a lot of AM Top 40 radio and So Very Hard to Go was one of my favorite songs. The music and vocals were fantastic! It reminded me of how great the songs were back then. Thank you, Enoma, for your wonderful reaction!

    Love Tower of Power!✊ One of my favourite groups! "You're still a Young Man"! Back in the day, them and WAR (another great group), they always toured together, to enthusiastic crowds!👍😎

    The song Magic Carpet Ride was released in 1969 at that time John Kay the lead singer of Steppenwolf was only 25 years old. He was born in Germany and he and his Mother escaped from East Germany right after World War II and eventually migrated to Canada. His father was killed in the war.

    A great band originated in san fransisco had a 5 piece horn section which would go on to tour and support other bands when possible. I have been a tower of power fan since i was in my teens this great horn section motivated me to learn to play saxophone i went on to play alto tenor and baritone saxophones in local bands. One of the all time great soul bands with one of the best horn sections of all time

    Tower of Power was a 1970's band. My Youth . The band wasn't for everyone, It was more of a cultural thing back then. They had some good songs. Try; All Day Music by them. That is music to take a long drive to. Your Still A Young Man is another good one. Grateful for the journey back to my teenage years. Those were fun. I'm old now, can't remember the other ones. Lol. Did see them in concert a couple of times.

    Classic soul jam from 1973. Remember it well. I took it for granted at the time; but it's amazing how much great music came out of the 1960s and 70s.

    The diner who sang " Your Still A Young to Man" ended up getting charged with murder and did around 20 years in jail. Maybe got out about 5 years ago or more .Changed his life around appeared with the band a couple of times and passed away recently. The band goes on to this day.Thanks for the music and honesty
