Details

Synopsis Decidedly one of the most important bands of the late-1960s, Sly and the Family Stone produced funk-soul-psych-rock R&B hits like "You Can Make It If You Try," "Everyday People," "Hot Fun in the Summertime," "There's a Riot Going on Here," and "I Want to Take You Higher." Jeff Kaliss brings new light to bear on this ground-breaking band, which had an integrated lineup in terms of both gender and race and did not shy away from politically charging its songs. Most exciting, perhaps, is the rare interview the author secured with the band's fascinating leader, Sly Stone.
