CD - Sly And The Family Stone - The First Family: Live At The Winchester Cathedral

1CD

The First Family: Live at Winchester Cathedral 1967 is an unprecedented live performance by the original Family Stone line-up, recorded just prior to their signing to Epic Records, and a full year before their chart breakthrough with 'Dance To The Music.'

This fascinating recording explicates Sly Stone's genius on a tremendously exciting and atmospheric set of vintage soul covers, peppered with the arrangements, motifs, and intoxicating energy that would soon become familiar during the group's ascent.

Interest in Sly is high with Questlove's documentary "SLY LIVES! (aka The Burden of Black Genius), but to experience the full impact of the Family Stone's legendary abilities from the start, this historic document is required listening.
