Sly and the Family Stone - Life (1968)
So this is pretty fantastic.
Track pick: "Plastic Jim", "M'Lady"
4/5
----------------------------------------
Townes Van Zandt - For the Sake of the Song (1968)
Pretty good. Not as good as Our Mother the Mountain though, and "Talkin' Karate Blues" makes me cringe.
Track pick: "Tecumseh Valley"
2.5/5
----------------------------------------
Isaac Hayes - Hot Buttered Soul (1969)
Let's see... "Walk On By" is awesome, "Hyperbolicsyllabicsesquedalymistic" does nothing for me, "One Woman" is pretty good but inconsequential, and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix" has one of the best builds I've ever heard. Overall, excellent stuff.
Track pick: "Walk On By", "By the Time I Get to Phoenix"
3.5/5
