Description
In 1969, Sly & The Family Stone were flower power royalty - a racially-mixed pop powerhouse armed with a slew of hits destined to soundtrack the Valtrex commercials of the future. Sly followed up on this glory by locking himself in his mansion loft with enough drugs to down the Hell's Angels and created a masterpiece out of the madness - There's a Riot Goin' On. Trouble funk is here.
