Overview
Release Date:04/06/2018;Notes:There's A Riot Goin' On - Sly And The Family Stone - Sly & the Family Stone red & recut by Kevin Gray! Since it took almost two years to make, the fifth album by now bonafide superstars Sly & the Family Stone had everyone salivating in anticipation. Needless to say, Sly did not disappoint! 1971's There's A Riot Goin' On finds the Bay Area-based genius getting funkier than before, even as his artistic vision becomes darker. The title "There's A Riot Goin' On" was an answer to Marvin Gaye's question "What's Goin' On". Some may have been disappointed that Sly didn't simply recreate the chart successes of earlier singles, but who can argue with the flat-out brilliance of turning recent big hit "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)" on it's head to create the mind-boggling "Thank You For Talkin' To Me Africa." Two of this hypnotic album's best tunes "Family Affair" and "Runnin' Away" were gigantic chart hits, proving beyond any doubt that Sly Stone could totally deliver the goods! Bob Irwin's definitive master finally gets the cut it deserves in this Kevin Gray cut red slab!;Track List:1. Luv N' Haight (Single Version) 4:02;2. Just Like a Baby 5:11;3. Poet 3:01;4.
