ROCKUMENTARY: SEPTEMBER 27, 1969

#9 – Sly & the Family Stone: “Hot Fun in the Summertime”

This was the premier funk band of its era that built on the foundation laid by James Brown. Sylvester Stewart, a.k.a. Sly Stone, used the weapon of tardiness to show how a person ranked in his universe. He was even late to concerts. Eventually, a band called Earth Wind & Fire ate his lunch. Today he lives in a van on the streets of South-Central L.A. How the mighty have fallen!
