Despite his status as a recluse for much of the past thirty years, Sly Stone still stands tall as one of the giants of popular music. He broke barriers, the reverberations of which are still felt within not just R&B and hip-hop but pop music as a whole. The omnipresence of tunes like ‘Everyday People’ and ‘Family Affair’ is a constant reminder of Sly’s pivotal role in shaping black music. “Everybody Is A Star: The Sly Stone Songbook" seeks to celebrate the songcraft and influence of Sly Stone’s work via the interpretations of others across the past fifty years. With copious, well-illustrated notes by Alec Palao, “Everybody Is A Star" is essential for any admirer of the work of the incredible, unpredictable, one and only Sly Stone.
