Doc Kupka presents Strokeland Superband / Kick It Up A Step!
Stephen "Doc" Kupka, the core member of "Tower Of Power" presented the super project called "Storkeland Superband" with many super musicians including present and former members of "Tower Of Power". The album has the lead vocals performed by Huey Lewis, Micky Thomas (of "Starship") and Bill Champlin. The music style on the album varys from typical "Tower of Power"'s one to Blue-eyed Soul, Rock 'n' Roll, Rhythm & Blues. As a matter of fact, linernotes of the CD said "What you call the music isn't nearly as important as what happens when you play this CD. We challenge you to sit still, but it's simply not possible. Hank Ballard had a phrase for this kind of music, ''Finger Poppin' Time.'' We call it ''Classic Snap For The New Millenium.'' Go Ahead..."
