Let’s get real, for more instinctual rhythm and energy is James Brown and his varying bands. Sly was more in the loose era where the energy isn’t as intense. Not to take away from anything they did put it’s more leading off from funk that was solidified before it, and they made it more “modern”

I'm jealous, I would love to see that. On the subject of foosball, my brother and I would "supplement" our paychecks by hustling others out of theirs playing foosball. We would start Friday at the youth group game room, then we would take our winnings and head down Charles Page BLVD to the back of a barber shop and pick up some cash there, then head to a bar around 11th and Peoria, head over to a pool hall on Admiral. The owners never carded use because we were tall. We would end up with a couple of hundred bucks, you know: Gas, dope and whiskey money (I stole my beer from the Quik Trip I worked at 😮). One night one of our frequent victims Geoff came to the table with a guy we had not seen before, kinda looked to old to be in youth group. Geoff's dad was a senior vice president of Williams oil, so he had much money, but hated that he couldn't beat us. This was in January of 1977. Geoff asks, "Got your tickets to the Led Zeppelin concert at the Myriad in OKC?" I told him no, cause all the tickets sold in Tulsa were gone in less than half an hour and the resulting riot wrecked the Fairgrounds ticket booth. He says, "I have 2 here that I'll wager against your paychecks", then sets them on the table. My brother and I were excited, we beat this guy SO often. We served and got a quick point, we were ahead. My brother and the unknown guy faced each other up front Geoff and I were goalies. We served the ball and new guy makes an instant goal. Then he serves and hits the ball SO HARD it comes out their goal and he shoots it into our goal again, my brother is screaming at me to block the ball, but you can't block what you can't see! They or I should say HE scored 9 more unanswered points, Fame over. Geoff then grabs our cash and says," thanks for buying my dope for the concert" and walks off. Later his sister,who lived with her mom and didn't much like Geoff told us she thought it was dirty that he FLEW in a foosball champion from Dallas just to beat us once, his ego couldn't take us poor boys being better at anything than him. Long story I know.😁

Do you remember his last name? What a story, Rob! You foosball hustler-entrepreneur. It never occurred to me to play for $$ back then, Cindy & I could have made some serious dough. We used to play at Siggy’s, Tornado of Tulsa and Good Times.

In my school,students formed clicques and rivalries over just about anything: music, clothes, sports, cars...you name it. But there was one thing that almost everyone could agree on: Sly Stone was baaaad, and that was good. All you had to do was put on a Sly and the Family Stone record, and any room would transform into an instant party. This Midnight Special performance is a perfect example. Check out the intro, where the band members boogie onto the stage, each one adding a layer to a thick, monstrous groove. And then Sly makes his grand entrance, looking as of he just stepped off the Mothership. In their best years, Sly and the Family Stone gave us so much good music and so many good times, all delivered with showmanship and funk beyond the call of duty.

If you ever get the chance to listen to Little Feat at Ultrasonic Studios, it's wonderous.
