[unique74muzik]

[wwwonderful]

Don,'t run away from reality. Great song, thanks

[usausaoo25]

After all Sly will be this music.

[blackandtanful]

当時度肝抜いた"暴動"を構成する､コケティッシュ曲"ﾗﾆﾝｸ­ﾞ･ｱｳｪｲ"～ｽﾗｲの魔術～きわめて軽そうで､ﾌｧﾝｸの重­み～カワイイ声自体ファンキー

[mingmong55]

loved this when i use to hear it playing on radio 1, back in the 70's, still as good today to listen to, thanks for this

[petuniababi]

@mingmong55 A masterpiece.Sly was always my man.So far ahead of his time.Later others became pale imitations.This song really speaks of the present times.Makes me feel good to know i was around during thies era.

Never heard this before. What a gift....soooo BEAUTIFUL! So poppy and refreshing. Where would music be in the 20 21st century w/o this groups influence

[AminTheMighty]

Hey, Tribe used elements from this rare break for "description of a fool" Good find on this one.

[DoomCity202]

WOW JUST FUCKING WOW!!!!!!!

They had some goooooooooooood ass dope back then

[shmuli9]

Who is singing lead on this? Cynthia?

[cwphunky68]

@shmuli9 - Rose is singing lead with just a faint bit of sly to double her vocal.

[wyattworks]

One of my all-time favorite groups and songs

[loverofoldskool]

this song reminds of hanging out in my big brother's room while he listened to his records - great memories!

[smallstepsbigresults]

Also, this song reminds me of "Kim Craig" The Best Newsreporter Channel 7 of Detroit, Michigan has ever had. No disrespect to the others @ all.

[MinisterLynne]

I'm diging this song-thank you so much for the post!

I hear Donald Byrd and the Blackbyrds style- is he on this cut?

[BabyBollox]

@MinisterLynne - I'm not sure "MinisterLynne" - i hope someone is able to tell you :-)

[exnewsanchor]

@MinisterLynne No.... This is all Sly and The Family Stone

[smallstepsbigresults]

Once again, eye still love you "Labrenda Walker" R.I.P. to your brother too.

[taildragger53]

Woke up with this song on my mind. Back in 1971 this was my fave...it's still a masterpiece that influenced so many bands like Funkadelic etc. Sly was in a bad way around this time.

His pot of gold at the rainbows end was a ghetto illusion.

 He was being hounded by Black Panthers etc,but the smooth, depressive beauty of this song has a message that many can relate to...more so today. Thank you for posting this diamond.

[BabyBollox]

@taildragger53 - You're very welcome "taildragger53" - and thanx to Sly for his wonderful music :-)

[n64wilbert]

@BabyBollox Thank you!!!!

[jewfish424]

another day your farther away, a longer trip back home

[jewfish424]

always a good message from sly.

thank you sly
