SLYSTONE

Funk/Soul1960s–1970s

About

Sylvester Stewart, known as Sly Stone, created one of the most radical sounds in funk history with Sly and the Family Stone — a racially and gender-integrated band that merged funk, rock, psychedelia, and soul. Stand! and There's a Riot Goin' On defined the possibilities of the form. Sly's productions are endlessly sampled for their raw polyrhythmic arrangements.
