In order for music to progress some individuals and groups must stick their necks out. Being different and being themselves was always the staple of Sly And The Family Stone. They paved the way for more musicians to be free with their music and take it to higher levels. The Family helped intergrate many audiences and change the way that other artists approached music. Sometimes forgotten for their contributions as it always seems with great innovators, the group will always be an important piece of the puzzle of music history.
