Product Description:
1975's IN THE SLOT finds the Oakland supergroup Tower Of Power with a new voice in the person of Hubert Tubbs. While he doesn't have Lenny Williams' range of expression, Tubbs has a rich gusto that gives Tower Of Power's deeply soulful music a different tone from previous efforts. Overall, the sound of the group is heavier here, with an almost gospel flavor in some moments and a distinct Stevie Wonder quality from Chester Thompson's clavinet work. The band can still throw out some intensely funky grooves, too, like the opening "Just Enough and Too Much" or the incredibly tight "On the Serious Side." There are some groovy ballads here, as usual, with "Treat Me Like Your Man" and "The Soul of a Child" among the standouts. However, it's the Tower Of Power funk that drops in on the instrumental "Ebony Jam" and the raucous "Drop it in the Slot" that's the backbone of this sometimes overlooked gem.
