I Want to Take You Higher: Writing about Sly and the Family Stone Is Difficult

Comments

We all loved the heydays of the 60's and 70's... especially those of us who didn't quite get the "LBJ" flag in the coffin thing.

God knows... granting he/she\it/them\you/her aren't on interstellar excuse for poor choices in this terrestrial space.

Kinda of hard to prove it to the world when everyday people all around us have difficulty even choosing which reality based lifestyle to stick with.

Sly and the Family brought decades of good times to all who enjoyed their music.... and the reclusive over-indulgers of the world all know why...

...take it to the bank, that's the name of the new strawberry slide and the box of family rocks, because were all in this together even if you can't remeber if that was one of their songs.

sly stone was the man back in the day and black artist should take a lesson and learn REAL music from this man.

..."there's still a void at the heart of the book." Ture.
Hope to read more of your take on Sly.

Please wait...
