Video: Sly & the Family Stone: various performances [live footage]
Tomorrow, Epic/Legacy releases reissues of all seven Sly & the Family Stone LPs-- each of which originally came out between 1967 and 1974. But Sly & the Family Stone were icons for a few reasons besides their music-- not least of which was Stone's multiracial backing band. Though Stone's drug use has derailed his band's attempts at a full reunion (and caused one bizarre performance at the 2006 Grammy Awards), there's lots of video online to document their career. Below are three of our favorite Sly Stone YouTube finds.
