    I’ve always liked Sly & the Family Stone – reminds me of high school. And I always liked Soul Train. Thanks for the memories…

      Great band. The Soul Train part is an added bonus. Best clip on YouTube for that song because of it

    Sly and the Family Stone brings back a lot of memories that I haven’t thought about in a long time. And you have asked a hard question. I’m going to take the wildest stab in the dark: Herman of Hermans Hermits — although I don’t know if he could be considered a muscian. HA! 😀
