BRILLIANTISM: THE FAMILY STONE

4.17.2009

THE FAMILY STONE

The first thing we did was listen to a song called "Stratospheric Boogie," as performed by the first guy ever to endorse a Telecaster.

We recorded a bunch of warped-jazzy, warm-fuzzy, sweet-salty baby grand piano last weekend. Larry Lewicki (seen above) helped us out, sharing incredible chops as well as his home. He sent a too-kind thank you message (subject line: "Saturday was a hoot") that recommended the seen-below Sly and the Family Stone live performance on the Smother's Brother's show. "Sly," Larry explained "has been keeping me company on my walk to work."

Thanks again Larry!

  1. Ok, somebody hit the crazy button there. Likely culprits: the tamborine, the woman (!) trumpet player, the baritone backup vocals or the guy dancing by/taming the drum set towards the end. Bananas.
