There was once a guy in my life that I accused of being too young and sent him on his way! Over time I discovered he should have never let him go. He was wonderful to me and really loved me...Time has given a chance to see that he turned out just fine!

I dedicated this song to my husband back in the day, cause he is 6 1/2 years younger than I, but am glad he didn't listen to me, cause he is the best man on this earth. Been married 25 years and counting. Love Tower of Power especially this song.

I sang this song for my girlfriend right before I asked her to marry me. I love her so much, and I can't thank Tower of Power enough for being there for me in the moments of trouble. They showed me the funk, and the groove, the subtlety of music, and they showed me love, just like my girl Jove. Keep doing what you guys do TOP, there is no one greater you.

I used to drive this black guy friend of mine home from work all the time in the 70's. The first thing I'd do is put on this song for him for the drive. I'll bet we played it over and over again until I pulled into his driveway! Even then, he didn't want to get out of the car...

There is a band here in San Jose called Tortilla Soup - started by a Sam Jose police officer who plays trumpet and Mic was his teacher. Early on Mic was playing with them as was Skip Mesquite, and his son was one of the singers. There bass and keyboard players and another singer had [played with Malo. They played some bars and Downtown Sunnyvale music series. Not your typical cover band - and personally any band that play You're Still a Young Man and Suavecito is OK by me - add in original players - yes they were awesome. Was shocked one time I saw them at a restaurant/bar on the Milpitas/San Jose border and there was hardly anyone there.

Seen TOP live a couple dozen times through the years and this song always moves me. Larry Braggs was the BEST lead singer they ever had besides Lenny WIlliams. Just saw the temptations last year and THERE HE WAS!!!!! Wanna check out Tower's new singer marcus scott this summer. Also if you didn;t know Dave Garibaldi got in a serious accident along with their guitarist marc Van Waningnegen (sp?) in Oaklnd a few months ago. Best Wishes for them DG is supposed to come back to the band by the end of this year. THE BEST BAND IN CONCERT EVER!

We were in Japan together in the late 90's when he was in the US NAVY BAND, THEN HE GOT OUT, join the Lynard Skynnard band & eventually with the TOP. He left the group & went back to Naval Academy in Annapolis to join back the US naval band. Seen them here in Las Vegas w/ TOP during thier gigs here in Orleans Casino. Good horn player. Way to go Mike.
