Sly & The Family Stone were true pioneers on many levels—black and white, male and female, rock and soul—shattering all preconceptions of what popular music could be. They would go on to become one of the most groundbreaking and influential artists the world has ever witnessed.

The First Family: Live at Winchester Cathedral 1967 captures an unprecedented live performance by the original Family Stone line-up, recorded just before their signing to Epic Records and a full year before their chart breakthrough with Dance To The Music. This fascinating recording showcases Sly Stone’s genius on a tremendously exciting and atmospheric set of vintage soul covers, peppered with the arrangements, motifs, and intoxicating energy that would soon become familiar during the group’s rise to fame.

With interest in Sly & The Family Stone at a high point thanks to the forthcoming documentary directed by Questlove, this historic release offers a rare chance to experience the full impact of the Family Stone’s legendary abilities from the very start. A must-have for fans and collectors alike.
