January 23, 2016 - Sly and the Family Stone - Everyday People (1968)


I probably heard this song as a kid and liked the scooby dooby doo-bee part. There was a time when I would put on Sly and the Family Stone's Greatest Hits CD and just have it repeat over and over. Well, sometimes I would skip 'Life' because I would get tired of that circus music. Like many of the songs from this album, 'Everyday People' feels so positive and universal, 'we got to live together' (love how he sings at the end of 'together') and respect one another. Such a funky groovy bunch, great clothes, and Sly had the cool giant afro. Whoa, listen to that cowbell coming out of the left speaker, can we get more cowbell?
