Ok, awesome breakdown of Dance to the Music --- smartest part of the film so far. #SlyLives

Settling in for #SlyLives on #Hulu - praying for few talking heads, lots of historical footage, interviews only with folks who are relevant, please.

Might post random Sly observations here, as it rolls.

oh shoot, didn't know that Questlove's Sly Stone documentary was dropping so soon. Later this week: 2/13, on Hulu! I know what I'm doing!

Sly is EVERYTHING. So significant musically, culturally... and also, selfishly, enormously significant in my own musical make-up.

Although I have no doubt Quest does him justice with this, I really hope it is light on the talking heads, heavy on historical footage.

And while I appreciate using contemporary figures to explain someone's significance, please keep it relevant. The best of the best, please. (Looks like D'Angelo is featured. That's what I'm talking about.)
