À propos de cet audio

Episode 2 explores the revolutionary formation of Sly and the Family Stone in 1966 San Francisco. From Sylvester Stewart's vision of an integrated band that challenged both musical and social boundaries, we follow the assembly of this groundbreaking group. Each member brought unique talents: brother Freddie's guitar mastery, Cynthia Robinson's pioneering trumpet work, Larry Graham's bass innovation that created the slap-and-pop technique, Jerry Martini's sophisticated saxophone, Gregg Errico's rock-influenced drumming, and sister Rose Stone's gospel-trained vocals. The episode details their early singles like "I Ain't Got Nobody" and the breakthrough hit "Dance to the Music," showing how they created a new sound that fused rock, R&B, soul, psychedelia, and gospel while proving that musical integration could produce something more powerful than segregation ever could.
