Description
・ SoulMusic Records is proud to present expanded editions of BUMP CITY and TOWER OF POWER, the first two classic albums by pioneering funk super group Tower Of Power as a 2-CD set with single versions of the hits, ‘You’re Still A Young Man’ and ‘What Is Hip?’.
・ BUMP CITY was recorded in Memphis, working with the legendary Steve Cropper and famed Stax engineer Ron Capone and yielded the timeless slow jam, ‘You’re Still A Young Man’ (a US Top 30 pop and R&B hit) and key cuts such as ‘Down To The Nightclub’ and ‘You Got To Funkifize’.
・ The follow-up LP, 1973’s self-titled album introduced music lovers to the soulful vocals of (future solo hitmaker) Lenny Williams via the US Top 20 R&B/pop charted single, ‘So Very Hard To Go’ and the popular funk groove, ‘What Is Hip?’.
・ This 2016 reissue includes extensive notes by renowned UK writer Charles Waring with quotes from band members Greg Adams and David Garibalid and great remastering by Donald Cleveland.
