Tony Adamo With Doc Kupka, Mic Gillette, And Tom Politzer

Matt Boudreau's Broken Radio Recording Studio (San Francisco, California) was the perfect sound backdrop for the soul/funk artistry of singer-songwriter Tony Adamo's smooth funk vocals and Jerry Stucker's in-the-pocket production for a new cover of a classic Tower of Power (TOP) hit tune. The funky knockin' song, covered by Strokeland Records artist Tony Adamo, was written by Tower of Power co-founders, Stephen 'Doc' Kupka and Emilio Castillo. The historic session was photographed by famed photographer, Mark Leialoha.

When Doc Kupka got hip to this new Adamo/Stucker arrangement, he was in the groove and immediately signed on for the horn section. Mic Gillette, who has arranged and recorded on six Adamo/Stucker songs, wrote a funk show-time arrangement for this new cover. Tom E. Politizer of TOP was brought in for the lead solo. This funkifized TOP horn section combination blew the roof right off the Broken Radio Recording Studio, sending their funky musical vibes into the soundosphere! At the end of the recording session Doc suggested two more TOP songs for Adamo to cover. Keep your ear to the streets for more to come and for Tony Adamo's new release, which you'll find right here on Strokeland Records.
