Rick Stevens, lead singer for Tower Of Power in their early years passed September 5 after a brief struggle with liver cancer.
After appearing briefly on the band's debut album "East Bay Grease", Rick assumed lead vocals for their next effort "Bump City". The album spawned two Hot 100 singles, and gave the group national exposure. He left during the recording of their next album which was self-titled.
From there his life took a plummeting downward spiral which involved a triple murder, a life sentence, and a 2012 parole.
Remembering Rick with his performance on the band first Top 40 single.
