Tower of Power Direct Pluys

FROM THE LINER NOTES

Originally recorded on LP in 1981, this CD has been remastered to include extraordinary performances never before released. The PLUS! additions are not new mixes, but completely different performances both from the musicians standpoint and the engineering perspective. The excitement of Direct to Disc recording has created an energy level hard to attain in a normal studio environment. These performances speak for themselves.
