The entire Gainesville music scene was built around songs: Top Forty songs on the radio, songs on albums, original songs performed on stage by bands and other musical ensembles. The late sixties was a golden age of rock and pop music and the rise of the rock band as a musical entity. As the counterculture marched for equal rights and against the war in Vietnam, a sonic revolution was occurring in the recording studio and on the concert stage. New sounds were being created through multitrack recording techniques, and record producers such as Phil Spector and George Martin became integral parts of the creative process. Musicians expanded their sonic palette by experimenting with the sounds of sitar, and through sound-modifying electronic ef- fects such as the wah-wah pedal, fuzz tone, and the Echoplex tape-de- lay unit, as well as a variety of new electronic keyboard instruments and synthesizers. The sound of every musical instrument contributed toward the overall sound of a performance or recording, and bands were begin- ning to expand beyond the core of drums, bass, and a couple guitars.

Kesey is a young, talented novelist who has just seen his first book, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nestpublished, and who is consequently on the receiving end of a great deal of fame and fortune. While living in Palo Alto and attending Stanford's creative writing program, Kesey signs up to participate in a drug study sponsored by the CIA. The drug they give him is a new experimental drug called LSD. Under the influence of LSD, Kesey begins to attract a band of followers. They are drawn to the transcendent states they can achieve while on the drug, but they are also drawn to Kesey, who is a charismatic leader. They call themselves the "Merry Pranksters" and begin to participate in wild experiments at Kesey's house in the woods of La Honda, California. These experiments, with lights and noise, are all engineered to create a wild psychedelic experience while on LSD. They paint everything in neon Day-Glo colors, and though the residents and authorities of La Honda are worried, there is little they can do, since LSD is not an illegal substance. The Pranksters first venture into the wider world by taking a trip east, to New York, for the publication of Kesey's newest novel.

Sly’s groundbreaking and revolutionary lyrics cemented the band's legacy as legitimate with their 1993 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. From the Hall of Fame: THEY TOOK US HIGHER.

  • David Dorfman Dance Grooves to Sly and the Family Stone - News from Southeastern Connecticut
    4/4/2017 The Day - David Dorfman Dance grooves to Sly and the Family Stone - News from southeastern Connecticut David Dorfman Dance grooves to Sly and the Family Stone "Prophets of Funk - Dance to the Music" leaps onto the stage Frida at Connecticut College. Pulished Feruar 03. 2011 2:03AM | Updated Feruar 03. 2011 9:17AM Kristina Dorse (mailto:[email protected]) Da Arts ditor Dancer David Dorfman says, simply, "I've always been the biggest, biggest fan of Sly and the Family Stone." He has a vivid memory of working out with a pal in high school - Dorfman was on the baseball and football teams, his friend was a basketball player - and they put on an 8-track (yes, an 8-track) of Sly and the Family Stone. "We played it over and over again. This became kind of like an anthem," he says. Dorfman was addicted to "Soul Train" and says, "Everything about the culture of soul and funk appealed to me." And then, during his first week as a freshman at Washington University at St. Louis, the school hosted a concert by Sly and the Family Stone. Dorfman, now an acclaimed choreographer and head of the David Dorfman Dance troupe, is returning to Sly with his new work, "Prophets of Funk - Dance to the Music," which the group will perform Friday at Connecticut College's Palmer Auditorium. Dorfman, a 1981 Conn grad, is now the college's dance department chair. In 2007, the New York-based David Dorfman Dance was named permanent company-in-residence at Connecticut College.

  • The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh
    The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh 16 EVERYDAY PEOPLE, Sly and the Family Stone Written and produced by Sly Stone Epic 10407 1968 Billboard: #1 (4 weeks) After two hundred takes failed to get an acceptable "White Rabbit" from a pre-Jefferson Airplane group featuring Grace Slick, disc jockey/ record producer Sylvester Stewart vowed to forget that acid-rock shit. So he renamed himself Sly Stone and formed his own band to play "the first fusion of psychedelia and rhythm and blues." In the Family Stone, men and women, black and white, played and sang as equals and each member's voice matched his or her instrument (i.e., bassist Larry Graham both played and sang bass. while Cynthia Robinson had the same brassy range and timbre as her trumpet). More startling, in Sly's songs rock and soul -- that is, black and white post -- Presley pop-intermingled till you couldn't find where one began and the other left off. The nursery rhyme simplicity and seductive tunefulness of "Everyday People." their third single and first Number One hit. make it almost too sweet to be true, and its fusion of rock and soul elements reflects an integrated symmetry that's still breathtaking. "Everyday People" proposes something even more radical than "different strokes for different folks" (a phrase it placed in the permanent American vernacular). The song argues that the healing power of music even encompasses curing rifts among races and classes. That was a corny/naive idea even in 1968, yet the record remains convincing because it so delightedly practices everything it preaches, You could spend a lifetime fathoming what gives Sly the courage to declare (at a time when the unity of the civil rights movement was disintegrating into a dagger's length truce), "We got to live together!" Even if the record's final boast, "I AM everyday people" means only that the "we " who had to live together were the antagonistic sides of Sly's own personality, these are words to live by.
