STONE,SLY - I'M JUST LIKE YOU: SLY'S STONE FLOWER - PURPLE Vinyl LP

In 1970, The Family Stone were at the peak of their popularity, but the maestro Sly Stone had already moved his head to a completely different space. The first evidence of Sly's musical about-turn was revealed by the small catalog of his new label, Stone Flower: a pioneering, peculiar, minimal electro-funk sound that unfolded over just four seven-inch singles. In these grooves you'll find the missing link between the rocky, soulful Sly Stone of Stand! And the dark, drum machine-punctuated, overdubbed sound of _There's A Riot Going On. I'm Just Like You: Sly's Stone Flower 1969-70_ opens up the mysteries of an obscure but monumental phase in Stone's career.
