#395 "What a G-double-O-D vibration" - A Tribute To Sly Stone (22nd June 2025)

Howdy folks. Here’s our tribute to Sly Stone, who passed away a couple of weeks ago. It’s a bit late but that’s due to reasons that are lost to the midsts of time/are too boring to bring up.We’ve picked some of the hits and some of the (many) songs that sampled him over the years. It’s made with love, despite how ramshackle and under-researched links are. We say in the show, if you wanna know more about the man, you should checkout Questlove’s doc, Sly Lives!As always, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!https://www.instagram.com/radionighttrain/https://bsky.app/profile/thenighttrain.co.ukDon’t forget, we’re also available for family functions, weddings, funerals, boat launches and more!SHOWNOTESBreezeblock - Beastie BoysSLY LIVES!
