The three best bands to have seen between the fall of 1969 to Spring of 1970 were Sly etc, The Who and the Rolling Stones. In my humble opinion all three were peaking as far as live performance goes.

went to one of his concerts 1972 alvuquerque new mexico.and we sat in our seats and waited for what seemed an hour till they announced he could not perform tonite. He was too messed up on drugs. Sorry but that's life. I feel sorry for him. he was at the top of the world. He loved drugs more than his fans.

The beauty of this band is Sly even though he was the leader, always made sure that every band member had either a solo or a singing part or both in virtually every song they recorded. It was one of the most notable racially mixed bands and left a funky impression on my DNA.

I grew up with this band during its heyday. This is by a long shot not MOTOWN. This is CHUCK BERRY and LITTLE RICHARD on steroids and JAMES BROWN transfigured by Pentecostal religiosity. There's no shame in this game. The band invented and inverted and co-opoted pop musics.

Saw them every weekend in 1968. They were the 'house band' at the Electric Circus club on St. Marks Place, East Village. They were oustanding: unforgetable. In any set they combined Hard Rock, Soul R & B, San Fran Psychadelia, Funk, Gospel, Do Wop, Tribal African Chants and Big Band Jazz., fronted by messages of love and social spirituality. After Woodstock everybody caught on. Like Hendrix and Pink Floyd, Family Stone resonated in their own world... one-of-a-kind, pure musical genius!!
