Long before their explosion into the musical mainstream, Sly & the Family Stone were already revolutionizing the soundscape with performances like The First Family: Live at Winchester Cathedral 1967.
This unique live recording captures the original lineup of Family Stone in all its raw glory. A year before captivating the world with Dance To The Music, this performance encapsulates the timeless sound they were about to unleash. This LP is a vinyl gem – Sly Stone's genius shines through each soulful cover, peppered with the electrifying arrangements and irresistible rhythms that would define a generation.
Recorded before signing with Epic Records, the performance brims with the atmospheric flair and energy that would make them pioneers of rock and soul. This is a thrilling document of their beginnings, a testament to influential, boundary-pushing art on countless fronts – race, gender and musical style. This essential slice of music history comes to life with the warmth and depth that only vinyl can provide, accompanied by a beautifully designed booklet for those who cherish the liner notes.
Interest in Sly is once again at a fever pitch, thanks to Questlove's documentary, SLY LIVES! (aka The Burden of Black Genius). Yet to truly understand the seismic impact of Sly & the Family Stone, it's essential to experience this recording for yourself. This LP is more than music; it is an invitation for collectors to bear witness to the creative flame that would ignite a cultural revolution.
