LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-NOV 21, 2019… ON THIS DATE 49 YEARS AGO THE BAY AREA’S SLY AND THE FAMILY STONE RELEASED THEIR GREATEST HITS ALBUM. THIS BAND WAS THE BEST ROCK, SOUL, FUNK, DANCE BAND ALL ROLLED INTO ONE ! THE LP SOLD OVER 5 MILLION COPIES IN AMERICA, AND IS RANKED BY ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE AT # 61 ON IT’S LIST OF “THE TOP 500 ALBUMS OF ALL TIME.” THIS IS OUTSTANDING VIDEO FROM AN APPEARANCE ON THE TV SHOW “SOUL TRAIN” THAT LOOKS LIKE WAS HIJACKED FROM A JAPANESE TV BROADCAST. I LOVE THE FACT THAT THE BAND ACTUALLY PERFORMED LIVE ON A TV SHOW, AS OPPOSED TO BANDS THAT JUST LIP SYNC THEIR HITS. TRUE MUSICIANSHIP
