Sly Stone's new memoir, 'Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin),' rolls through the very-highs and very-lows of the pioneering funk musician's life.
In November 1987, someone in Sly Stone’s camp thought it would be a grand idea to book a two-night stand at the Las Palmas Theatre in Hollywood. The erstwhile superstar, who had notched multiple No. 1 hits during his Nixon-era salad days with his band Sly and the Family Stone, was … well, no one really knew what or where he was.
” The “na-na-na” breakdown of “Stand!” was added after Sly played the song live without it, only to discover it “wasn’t producing the necessary effect.” There are insider tidbits like this sprinkled throughout, but Stone never really digs too deep into his life or art; he’s content to skim over the surface. By 1969, Stone had his creative stride. “I had so many ideas for songs that year,” he writes.
