  • The Life and Tragic Ending of Sly Stone. The story of American funk and soul would be incomplete without Sly Stone and his highly successful band. From shutting down shows like Woodstock, to building one of the largest music fanbase in the world, Sly’s legacy is etched in marble. But how did a young boy brought up in a religious home become one of the most popular psychedelic acts in the world? And why did he throw all that success away in the blink of an eye? This is not your typical fairytale, but a dark story involving gangsters, drugs, and the dark side of the music industry. This is the life and tragic ending of Sly Stone..

      I grew up among the Red Neck Rockers (much younger than they), Willie, Bridger, Jerry Jeff, Fromholtz and I were discussing the times in the business and I snarked about Prince. They were all about to dog pile and whip my ass. Fromholtz said, "You're too damn talented, Darly, to not like Sly Stone and I bet Prince can whip your ass on all them damn instruments you play!" I asked Steven for claw hammer banjo lessons at that point and ended up taking my mandolin on a river raft Six Flags excursion on the Shoshone River (Category 3 white water, easy peasy) . It's always about the music, and that means getting the message grooving with the river.

    Knowing what I know and understand now a lot of negativism surrounding Sylvester Stewart also known as sly stone has a lot to do I believe with record companies executives, and them controlling his life making his life miserable.
