Tough band! Love the funky sound that still rings true. Too bad people in America can't get along like the members of Sly's Band, diversity in musicianship, variety in instruments all making beautiful music together which draws EVERYDAY PEOPLE together. Thank God for musicians who can get past gender and skin color to bring the World 🌍 Harmony if only for hours at a time. Enjoy the Concert Y'all 😊❤🎉

This man made FUNK a acceptable Music Form when it was not in the beginning. We use a scale not known to white people for so long only to be revealed in the 1920s on the east coast. We all knew this scale and by the 1960s it was time to bend it and flip it over to stir up some sexual sparks because we as a people were begining to be united. By 1979 it stopped. Thats when we lost our youth and we temporarry lost Sly. This is a outstanding post and I thank you North Sea Jazz for loading it up for us older folks.
