Different Strokes by Different Folks
Sly & The Family Stone
Description
[Machine Translation] Sly & the Family Stone, a one-and-only band that contributed greatly to the establishment of the funk sound and actively encouraged African Americans to express themselves in anticipation of the rise of black power. Their songs have been covered and sampled countless times, and their sound as well as their lyrics, which include biting social criticism, have had an immeasurable impact on rappers with a radical attitude. This album is a dream collaboration with Sly. As if to show Sly's spirit, the album features a wide variety of musicians from different genres as well as black music (Steven Tyler, Janet Jackson, Maroon 5, D'Angelo, etc.)! Unlike ordinary tribute albums, this album uses Sly's original master tapes, as the title suggests, and some of them take a remix approach, some of them harmonize with Sly on the chorus, and some of them put completely different lyrics on the songs and transform them into completely different songs. Even though they all took different approaches, you could clearly feel their respect for Sly's music. I hope you will take this rare opportunity to feel Sly's DNA and spirit. Bilingual translation is available.
