In a calendar oddity that happens every seven years or so, my birthday has fallen on Thanksgiving – our annual celebration of colonization and genocide. Just kidding. It’s our national holiday devoted to over-indulgence and sloth. Just kidding. It’s a chance for the citizens of America to express gratitude over the limitless bounty that we enjoy here in the greatest, most civilized and chari

"You don't have to die before you've lived..."Two years ago, I bought The Collection by Sly and the Family Stone for fifty dollars American.

He has two of the sweetest girls and they are absolutely crazy for their big cousin Stanley...to quote my sister-in-law "If they...

At this point in his career Sly was a truely tortured soul. Deep in the throes of hopeless addictions, he none the less produced this dissolute masterpiece.

Sly stabs and slashes on the keyboards, and a percolating, simmering rage informs the whole track.
