Where this album fits

Career context
Released in 1995, 'Souled Out' marked Tower of Power's first album in over five years, following the less commercially successful 'Power' in 1990.

This album came at a time when the group was re-establishing its presence in the music scene after lineup changes and evolving musical tastes.
