Description:
Originally released as a 2-LP set.
Sylvester Stewart, AKA Sly Stone, was a singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist who fused R&B with rock and roll when Prince was still in purple satin diapers. With the Family Stone, he created a complex, energetic brand of soul/rock that had a profound impact on both musical worlds. Stewart was one of the first pop artists to directly address racial issues (in songs like "Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey"). Reaching out to people of all races, he also penned one of the funkiest, most memorable "message" songs, "Everyday People."
ANTHOLOGY is an excellent introduction to this crucial link in American music; it's also a collection of some of the finest singles ever recorded. "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)" is assured its place in funk history by virtue of Larry Graham's thumb-slapping bass riff. Butt-shaking anthems like "Dance To The Music" and "I Want To Take You Higher" display Stone's skills as an arranger, creating a whirlwind of sound incorporating funk rhythms, soul horns and rock guitar, along with the ensemble vocals that were a Family Stone specialty.
