Tower of Power

I went this past Saturday night to the Fox Theatre in Redwood city  to see one of my favorite drummers, David Garibaldi.  He plays with Tower of Power, which is one of the best funk bands ever.

The show was packed, sold out.  We were up at the front so I had a great view.  He played with the precison that I hoped for.  His style of funk drumming is so unique and cool.  It was great to watch him play classics, like What is Hip as well as newer tracks.  

Davids book, Future Sounds, is one of my favorite books. The techniques and grooves you will learn out of that book will be used in all sorts of situations.  

Anyhow, check out more of David Garibaldi at:
