Tower of Power: Power From The Tower
John Abbey, Blues & Soul, 4 February 1975
THAT OLD adage that you have to be Black to be a soul band has been firmly buried over the past couple of years. You can take a random look at the American soul charts over the past few months and odds are that you'll find at least a couple of white acts somewhere on view. In fact, it's become quite respectable and sophisticated for a black band to have at least one white member.
