Our Take

Tower of Power is back with their latest album "Soul Side of Town," and let me tell you, it's hotter than a cup of tea on a scorching summer day. Packed with funky grooves and soulful melodies, this album is like a proper British afternoon tea - a delightful mix of classic flavours with a modern twist.

From the opening track "East Bay! All Day!" to the closing notes of "Do You Like That?" Tower of Power prove that they've still got the magic touch when it comes to crafting infectious tunes. The brass section is as sharp as ever, the rhythm section is tighter than a pair of skinny jeans, and the vocal harmonies are sweeter than a batch of scones.

Songs like "Butter Fried" and "On The Soul Side of Town" will have you tapping your foot and nodding your head in approval, while slower jams like "Slow Burn" and "On the Oakland Stroke" show a softer, more introspective side to the band. It's like having a proper cuppa with your mates - comforting, familiar, and oh so satisfying.

So, if you're looking for a bit of musical escapism that's as British as a Greggs sausage roll, then look no further than Tower of Power's "Soul Side of Town." It's a proper banger of an album that's sure to leave you feeling like you've just had a cheeky Nando's with your old mates. Cheers, lads!
