 Tower of Power - Studio-session work has never lent itself to
wide recognition except among other musicians, yet when not on the road as Tower
of Power, the individuals who make up the critically acclaimed West Coast horn
section might as well go by another name: "Backup for the World." Individually
and in various incarnations, members of Tower of Power (fronted by Emilio
Castillo) have recorded as sidemen for Elton John, Santana, Bonnie Raitt, Huey
Lewis, Little Feat, David Sanborn, Michelle Shocked, Paula Abdul, Aaron Neville,
and Riot. Tower of Power has had their share of personnel changes over the
years, but the core group members (including Castillo on saxes and vocals,
Stephen "Doc" Kupka on baritone sax, Greg Adams on trumpet and vocals, and Rocco
Prestia on bass) have remained, giving Tower of Power a percussive horn-based
sound that is not rooted in any one genre. ~ Richard Skelly, All Music Guide
