LIFELIFE
\ USA - yellow Epic Records -
FAbulously MNT, like it was just opened, even though it is 40+ years old...
STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER!
The top 10 success of the 1968 smash "Dance To The Music" enabled the band to not only to play the colleges but also turn to the bigger ballrooms. Sharing the bill with well known acts like the Jimi Hendrix Experience. As a matter of fact it was Sly's band driving the people insane and their live reputation grew. The third album "Life" didn't produce any hits which in retrospect is hard to believe because it delivered the same irresistible grooves that urge the listener to play over and over again....
1968's "LIFE" was the bastard offspring of gutbucket soul and psychedelic rock. The collected early works of Sly Stone, provide a musical bridge between James Brown's bedrock grooves and George Clinton's cosmic slop. A former DJ and veteran music-biz hustler, Sly was a supernaturally gifted band leader, arranger, player, producer, songwriter and onstage instigator. The lyrics of his catchy choruses tempered uplifting messages with urban reality; his flashy persona and streetwise cool set the style standard for the superbad, superslick early '70s.
Life is where Sly's dazzling all-things-to-all-people vision snaps into full focus. "Dynamite!" explodes in a hailstorm of volatile, feedback-laced rock. "Plastic Jim," "Into My Own Thing" and "Love City" connect hippie idealism to wickedly syncopated rhythms. And the joyously hedonistic party numbers – "Fun," "M'Lady" – just won't quit. When Sly testifies on "Life," insisting that "you don't have to come down" and "you don't have to die before you live," the ebullient music supports his spiritual tightrope walk...
