Sly and the Extended Family Stone

A new album of Sly and the Family Stone covers has been released recently and there's an interesting Podcast available here. There are two separate podcasts here so make sure you get to hear both.
















Artists such as Chuck D, The Roots, Big Boi and Isacc Hayes contributed to the project and some of them talk here about how the Stone sound influenced their work and well as giving samples of the album. I wouldn't normally be interested in a covers album in fairness but there's lots of respected artists in here so I'm looking forward to getting my hands on this one.
