Sly & the Family Stone Appreciation Thread

[MidnightMercenary]

I'm a huge hip-hop fan, but I still have a love for soul/funk music as well. Sly and the Family Stone is definitely the artist I've been listening to the most lately; without a doubt one of my favorite artists ever.

Stand! was the group at their peak but I think Fresh was the best thing Sylvester ever did.

Fair enough

Stand! was the group at their peak but I think Fresh was the best thing Sylvester ever did.

Stand! is probably my favorite album from them overall and I wish they had more output as a group

Riot and Fresh are still incredible though.. Sly is insanely talented

There's A Riot Going On is my favorite Sly Album the commentary on social issues, the dark psychedelic beats. The answer album to Marvin Gaye's What's Going On

He sure does but he will never release it. Some fans actually come together and bought him some new equipment for his 73rd birthday.

Have you ever seen Marvin talk about Riot? I have always wondered what he thought about the album.
