Nominated by Charlie from Petaluma who says: Heard on DJ Cheshire Cat’s Wonderland or DJ Rob’s Chocolate Cake while gardening started a later in life appreciation for Jethro Tull. Saw Ian Anderson in 2019 at a local winery – one of the best shows ever. Thanks Guys!

42. Squib Cakes by Tower of Power

Year Released: 1974
Released On: Back to Oakland
Nominated by Michael Benson of 75% Folk.
Nominated by Sir Jon of Pint O’ Comics who says: Amateur and pro drummers alike have been trying for years to emulate David Garibaldi’s opening riff to this mostly instrumental tune from the moment the track was laid down. Chester “C.T.” Taylor, the band’s then-keyboard/organist will be forever immortalized for putting this 8 minute monster (longer in concert!) into Tower of Power’s repertoire. We are all blessed for it.
