- We were honored to have the Funky Doctor, Stephen "Doc" Kupka as our latest guest on the Everything Saxophone Podcast this week.
We talked about:
-Doc’s background - he didn’t start on sax; he was very accomplished on another instrument
-His practice routine then, and now
-What life on the road is like
-How he gets his huge sound
-What he feels like are his weaknesses - he was really candid about this
-The genre of music he really enjoys (this hearkens back to his early days)
-How Doc met Emilio Castillo and became an integral part of Tower of Power
- and a whole lot more...

Very interesting..Been listening to Doc & the band since 1971...Hooked for life...
That's cool, Woody. This was a fun interview. I can't believe it's been a few years since I did this one...
Dr.Steve it is.
I graduated High School in 1973, in a City next to Oakland, CA where the band is from. Tower of Power was one of our favorite bands. I enjoy the slower love songs from the 70's.
Jan 2022, I caught Covid and was in bed for 22 hours a day for 4 weeks. I think I needed the Funky Doctor Steve Kupka to vaccinate my Soul. Stick em Doc.
Hope you have fully recovered 🤗
@@EverythingSaxophonePodcast I did fully recover but it was 4-5 weeks at 22 hours a day in bed, weak, barely able to move, diarrhea, no appetite..
Important thing is that you fully recovered!
@@EverythingSaxophonePodcast And I survived. It brought me close to death, but my body was able to fight it off with no medication and no hospitalization. It's the sickest I've ever been.
Still have an autograhed venue ticket that i asked Doc to sign from a show they did on Guam in 1984.
The King Of the Scoop and Pop. Bari style.
