Great to see the audience dancing along, unlike so many vids with audiences watching great danceable music and sitting motionless like they're listening to an economics lecture. This was one of the best bands of that or any other time, and Sly was a brilliant composer.

Absolutely! I was a kid but I knew that's what he was doing- bringing everyone together. One of those weird things that's hard to describe to someone who wasn't there. A sense of hope of living together ...with joy ...was tangilble. Coming out of political changes that fired up society. Not because they were radical and vengeful like today's supreme court, but because the population at large supported progress of human rights.

Pretty intense. The energy and the enthusiasm is just off the charts. Its hard to compare with anything in the modern day scene. Just no one has a mastery of musical instruments anymore. Thus the ability to create a wall of sound live like this is not possible. They're bending the vibe with each note.

@robroufla 7 ай бұрын

"Just no one has a mastery of musical instruments anymore" You don't have access to the internet or what ??? The level of musicianship has constantly increased immensely through the years. That's why today you get 10 y/o kids technically better than adults from the past century. Is the music better ? No way to compare it's not a sport, you can't mesure arts, but you can measure the mastery of an instrument and it has gone up. The stuff The Family Stone is playing here is not technically diificult, it's the feel, the vibe between the band members, the attitude, that make it special. Even they couldn't hold it together very long, within a year they'd be missing most of their live gigs and be so much into drugs they would implode the year after that.

I remember the TV Special "Farewell To The '70s" can't remember what tv station but it made me cry...
